PRINCE WILLIAM

Prince William 2nd in line to the British throne was born on 21st June 1982 at StMary’s hospital, London. He was the first child of Prince Charles and Diana, Princess of Wales and was born to intense media interest, an interest that has followed him through his life. As a grandchild to the queen is official title is His Royal Highness Prince William of Wales. If his father was to predecease Queen Elizabeth II it is likely he would be given the same title as his father Prince of Wales. He has a younger brother Harry and two step siblings; Tom Parker Bowles and Laura Bowles from his father’s second wife Camilla Parker Bowles.

Prince William Education

He was educated at various private schools in London and Berkshire before moving to the prestigious Eton college at the age of 11. It was hoped such a school would provide a safer environment, relatively protected from the intrusions of the media. By and large the media did respect the Palace’s request to “leave William alone until he was 18”. As a way of thanking the media, in his last year TV cameras were given a rare insight into the Prince at Eton, showing him enjoying various activities such as cooking and sport. Since leaving school relationship with the media have been less cordial, especially with regard to interest over his girlfriend Kate Middleton.

KATE MIDDLETON

Catherine Elizabeth "Kate" Middleton (born 9 January 1982) married to Prince William of Wales, elder son of Prince Charles, and the late Diana, Princess of Wales.

After her marriage, the official title of Miss Catherine Middleton is - Her Royal Highness The Duchess of Cambridge.

QUEEN ELIZABETH

She was born April 21, 1926, London, England. Queen of the United Kingdom from 1952. She became heir presumptive when her uncle, Edward VIII, abdicated and her father became king as George VI. In 1947 she married her distant cousin Philip, duke of Edinburgh, with whom she had four children, including Charles, prince of Wales. She became queen on her father's death in 1952. Increasingly aware of the modern role of the monarchy, she favoured simplicity in court life and took an informed interest in government business. In the 1990s the monarchy was troubled by the highly publicized marital difficulties of two of the queen's sons and the death of Diana, princess of Wales. In 2002 the queen's mother and sister died within two months of each other.

CRAZY BRITISH FESTIVALS

The British are eccentric. In summer they organize some very silly festivals.


GRAVY WRESTLING
In Britain, people have a great sense of humour.
So they organize crazy festivals and silly sports!
One of the most popular is gravy wrestling.
Participants wrestle for two minutes in a pool 
of sauce called "gravy". Around 2,000 litres of
the sauce are prepared for the championships
and people wear fancy dress.
They will probably never eat gravy again!


BOG SNORKELLING
The first World Championship was in 1985.
More than 200 people participate each year.
They complete two legths of a 55-metre bog in 
the shortest time possible.
They swim using their flippers.


WORM CHARMING
These people are looking for worms.
They make vibrations in the soil and use water 
to encourage worms to come to the surface.
They use music too. Worm charming began 
in 1980 in Cheshire, England.
Ten-year-old Sophie Smith "charmed" 567 
worms in 2009. That's a world record.


CHEESE ROLLING
It looks funny, but these people are running
after cheese.
The competition started in England 
200 years ago. A round cheese is rolled from 
the top of the hill and participants try to catcch 
it. The cheese travels at 110 km/hour, and it can 
be very dangerous!


SNAIL RACING
These people love snail racing. 
Snails start at the centre of a table and move
30 cm to the perimeter. Each snail has a number 
on it to make sure there's no cheating.
In 2010, a snail called Sidney won in three minutes 
and 41 seconds. Fans must be very patient.


TOE WRESTLING
Toe wrestling is like arm wrestling... with your 
feet! Players sit down and join toes. They try to
pin the other player's foot for three seconds.
The Toe Wrestling Championships started
in 1970s in Derbyshire, England.
