Prince Charles settles old debt


By crikey - I'm sure he's not that old. But he has paid up anyway. Now that's honouring your debts. Read on...

"Prince Charles has settled a royal debt dating from 1651.

The account of £453.15 was incurred by the future King Charles II, who commissioned the Clothiers Company of Worcester to make uniforms for his troops during the English civil war."

Sir Ed, Room5ians and Maungatautari


Last night we were privileged to join a walk up Maungatautari to carry our commemorative rock for his cairn and to hear some special words about and by the great New Zealander.
I felt honoured to be there on behalf of Peachgrove and the University of Waikato Hillary Scholars with Sasha.
Maybe, like Sir Ed said, you could take up opportunities. Perhaps one day you could win a Hillary Scholarship in your field of excellence.

I hope you follow your dreams and live life to the full.
