I was told that the duties of royal servants had included things like squeezing toothpaste onto Prince Charles’s brush or holding the royal specimen bottle when doctors wanted a urine sample.


If this is true, then is it not time to abolish the monarchy and declare a republic?

Prince Charles brushes his teeth?

They won't abolish the monarchy because of how much money it brings in in tourism.

Of course, simple fact which makes a hell of a lot of ecconomic sense

The Royal Fmailiy is responsbile for 25% of Englands $450 BILLION (112.5 billion US dollars). The U.K. government pays the royal familiy $10 Billion..... $100 Billion Clear cut profit.

The Royal familiy do a lot more of the more 'personal hygene' thing then they used to, but they still do very little.

"I've oft been told by learned friars
That wishing and the crime were one
And heaven punishes desires
As much as if the deed were done.

If wishing damns us, you and I
Are damned to all our hearts content.
Come then we may at least enjoy
Some pleasure for our punishment..."

Money talks...

Though I hope the butler had told the prince to hold his own specimen bottle in no uncertain terms.
