Prince Harming

Healthy, Wealthy (And Very Wise)

Very funny comment received from Toronto-based Rene. Reacting to my post Till Debt Do Us Part on 25 November, about the world's richest fictional characters, Rene chuckled at the fact that she gets daily emails from the fictional Nigerian prince. And this is what she said: ``Oh to be a girl again and have a real Prince Charming offer to share his wealth and not mine''.

Just thought I'd expand on the "girl" bit:

After reading "Till Debt Do Us Part"

I wrote:I receive an email from Prince Abakaliki of Nigeria (and the likes of him) every single day. How come they're never traced?

To which David replied: Not every girl gets an email from a Prince every day!

Dear Rene,
Thanks for putting that into the correct perspective.
Mary Donaldson of Tasmania found her handsome Prince - and that happened in a Sydney bar during the 2000 Olympic Games. Now she's Princess Mary of Denmark!
Cheers
David

Dear David,

I remember reading about that union on the internet after hearing about it on TV - but unlike Prince Abakaliki of Nigeria he only introduced himself as "Fred" when they first met in the bar. They now have a son named Crown Prince Christian Valdemar Henri John......

Sorry, meant to delete "Crown", but forgot as usual.

Hope Sandip hasn't seen it :-{

Dear Rene,
Ah well, he's entitled to a crown. That's exactly what you meant - and Sandip, with his extra-sensory perception, knew that!
