The Royal Representative

I have been featured in a post at The Monarchist Initiative.

The Monarchist Initiative is a Serbian movement that aims to restore monarchy and its ideals to the country. They discovered my site and the blog through - I believe - the link to the Serbian royal family which I put up about a month ago.

Thank you for the honor. It is always nice to see another pro-monarchy movement on the rise!

Megan Robertson’s magnificent Medals of the World is now listed on the blog on the right hand side under “Sources”. Her website is full of wonderful information on just about every medal on earth. Megan also provides a lot of helpful links to other sites who have information on medals and honors around the world.

Megan’s site is found at www.medals.org.uk and has been a part of my links list on Mandy’s British Royalty for several years now. Enjoy!

We are leaving for our English honeymoon immediately after the wedding. I still can’t believe it! I am so excited.

As a British royal historian, it’s nice that I actually get to visit the UK after ten years in the business. Being able to physically encounter the sights and sounds of the country will make my studies and presentations to my audience far richer. I hope what I experience makes the site and the blog even better than before. Of course, all photos will be posted here for your enjoyment… or just for your curiosity.

As wedding preparations continue (and as work picks up) I will not be able to post here as much. I will be happy to give a few updates once in a while though, especially if there is something in royal news that makes me want to rant, debate, discuss, or all of the above.

Wedding countdown: 5 weeks

I’ve just been notified by a keen-eyed Ebay fiend that my Royal anniversary stamp covers are being sold.

Let me know if there are any takers! :) This is interesting. [View More]

When someone asked the question “Should the Queen be an empress?” at Yahoo! Answers, I decided to answer them. My response was chosen as the best by voters!

Thanks everyone!

My new comments system “Intense Debate” is in place. You will now have features such as threaded comments, voting on favorite comments, and tracking the comments of friends across any blog with Intense Debate embedded.

I hope you all enjoy this new feature. :)

The upcoming DVD review will be Days of Majesty, part of a series of three DVDs which are entitled The Royals Collection/Queen Elizabeth II. For my book review, I will cover Queen and Consort/Elizabeth & Philip: 60 Years of Marriage.

I need more people involved with my online royal studies school “The Royal Educational Society”. So anyone out there wishing to teach - you can be an actual teacher or someone wishing to share their vast knowledge of a royal subject - please contact me through my website:

http://www.mandysroyalty.org/Contact.html

Since the site is in its formative stages, I am only accepting offers from people interested in teaching courses at this time. This is all strictly volunteer work should you wish to participate as a teacher.Your participation helps to forge an amazing new experience for people everywhere.

I need people who are experts in the Anglo-Saxon era of Britain’s history.

Well, not exactly, but our heir to the throne has made some good property moves. According to Hello!, the Prince has bought, sold or renovated over £200 million-worth of property in the past seven years, making a £43 million profit.

Sales of assets, which have raised £123.5 million since 2001, range from £30 million for a block of flats to £40,000 for farmland.

While dealing in property, Charles also purchased a new estate, located in Wales which I am happy to see. As Prince of Wales, it only seems appropriate. Now Charles’ only problem is trying to fit “Llwynywormwood” on to envelopes.

Though he has not updated his blog for almost a year, Rafal Heydel-Mankoo, the noted honors expert, returns via CTV Newsnet.

Mankoo is interviewed via telephone from Edinburgh about the recent May wedding of Peter and Autumn Phillips, which can be found here.
