Prince Harry and his fellow adventurers in the Walking With The Wounded expedition have arrived at the South Pole, the organisers have said.

The group stood at the bottom of the world at 12:00 GMT after more than three weeks of pulling sleds.

Twelve injured servicemen and women from the UK, the US and the Commonwealth were on the 200-mile walk.

A competitive element of the expedition had been suspended because of "difficult terrain".

1. Good chap, that Harry!

[closeupready]

2. +1 - he's grown into quite a man. He seems

very much like his mother, more even than William.

I don't like everything he's done that we've heard about, but to be fair, is there anyone on this board who does NOT have something in their past about which they would be cast in a bad light? So, there you go.

3. I hope people

can forgive Harry for the Nazi uniform costume.

[Prophet 451]

9. He was young and stupid

Us Brits have forgiven him for it as he's grown to be a wiser man.

4. Black Santa lives at the South Pole!

I learned that from Faux "News"!

5. That last line gives hope! "A competitive element .... suspended because of 'difficult terrain'"

Maybe when things get really bad regarding things like climate change we to will drop the competitive element and work together.

6. Anyone can get to the south pole

If you are transported by your royal retainers.
More royal superman B.S.

The Royals are a parasite on great Briton.

7. lol clueless, you do know HRH is a serving officer in HMF. you dont get retainers riding around in

an apache or scimitar.

[Prophet 451]

10. Well, we Brits like them

And since they're our royalty, ours are the only opinions that matter.

Also, Prince Harry is a serving officer who served as a scout in Afghanistan.

11. i know, its like the poster thinks HRH was followed by servants and a pa as he led his troop in

helmand province, the disconnect is staggering sometimes.

8. the last part was relayed to me by someone, the message sent was seemingly very dry and dark humour

it alluded to a race from school sports day being cancelled, probuably if posted here it would set of a shitstorm.
