The Royal Bumps

”RIDDLE OF ROYAL BUMPS’ says the Express. What riddle is that, you ask. And the paper answers a question with another question: ‘How did our princes get so bruised?’

‘Okay, let’s all get whitey’

Underneath are two pictures of ‘our’ princes, and sure enough they do both sport bruises on their royal brows.

But don’t worry, royal aides have reassured the loyal paper that neither injury is serious. William’s is a hockey injury, while Harry’s was sustained during training with an army unit.

Harry also hurt his knee, and had to ‘wimp out’ of the Clarence House team for Sport Relief’s one-mile run in London.

He professed himself ‘bitterly disappointed’ by this, and took solace at the Rattlebone Inn.

He emerged ten hours later and was seen in animated conversation with a large oak, a habit he picked up from in father.

An argument ensued, after which a second large bruise was spotted on Harry’s forehead. Orders were later sent for the tree to be cut down.’
