By Jocelynne Scutt - posted Thursday, 24 January 2013


‘”Charles”: Lovely, but they're all ok, everything's all right?

‘Nurse: Yes [gives more medical details] I think it's difficult sleeping in a strange bed as well.

‘”Charles”: Yes, of course, it's hardly the Palace is it?

‘”Queen”: It's nothing like the Palace is it Charles. When are you going to walk those bloody corgis?

‘”Charles”: Mumsy, I'll go and take the dogs outside.

‘”Queen”": I need to go visit Kate in the morning. My dear, thank you so much. Thank you. Bye

‘”Charles”: Bye

[Phone call ends]
