London newspaper The Mirror is reporting that the likely destination for the royal honeymoon will be the close-to-home Islands of Scilly.

The islands, roughly 29 miles off of Cornwall, are great for sight-seeing pretty coves and inlets.

Back in 1989, William went to the Islands of Scilly with his family.

I guess journalists/writers don't learn English in school anymore. No wonder we find communication so difficult:

"...off of...."!

I dont believe in royalty, it's undemocratic. I also don't like the fact that Prince Harry was taken out of iraq due to security issues. So what only poor people are supposed to die for the elites pointless wars?

Undemocratic? They are constitutional heads, not prime ministers or presidents.

Their ceaseless work with thousands of charities, let alone their own personally funded charities, give chances to millions of people. The lives of many poor people have been vastly improved because of their work.

That doesn't even start to take into account the tourism money they bring into their respective countries, the constitutional continuity they ensure, the good international relations they promote, such as the incredible work the Queen does with the Commonwealth, and the trade relationships they create.

In some countries, they can replace priministers. a very undemocratic power.

They should go to Cyprus and enjoy their empire's legacy.

Why is this a story? Who cares?

I do. The engagement of Prince William and Kate Middleton is heart warming and uplifting, let alone the incredible and endless charitable contributions of these families.

The Scilly Islands are beautiful and will be at spring's height in April.  Security and privacy will be easier, too.  Good choice, during a recession.

Listen, lad. I've built this kingdom up from nothing. When
I started here, all there was was swamp. All the kings said I was
daft to build a castle in a swamp, but I built it all the same,
just to show 'em. It sank into the swamp. So, I built a second one.
That sank into the swamp. So I built a third one. That burned down,
fell over, then sank into the swamp. But the fourth one stayed up.
An' that's what your gonna get, lad -- the strongest castle in these
islands.

Why are these people relevant? They have no real power - what do they do for a living?

Conservative comments can be so  tiresome.  Odd, as the British Conservative Party is staunchly monarchist.
