Feb 29th…

Today is the day when women can traditionally ask men to marry them instead of the more usual practice of the guy asking the girl.

Prince Harry on duty.

Questions have been asked if Prince Harry should be ‘allowed’ to go on active service in places where could come under fire and thus be placed in serious danger.
