when I met prince Charles...

I didn't really want to meet Prince Charles,having never been an admirer of his (I don't respect people who kill animals for pleasure and teach their children to do the same)However,he was opening the new hospital where I was a ward sister and our ward was designated as one he would visit.On the morning of his visit one of our patients died and there wasn't time to remove his body from the ward.The equerry informed us that on no account could Prince Charles visit a ward where a dead body lay behind curtains!The patients were very disappointed (I wasn't)After a while, we were told that Prince Charles was insistent that he would come as promised and he duly arrived.He wanted to know all about the gentleman who'd died and took individual interest in every patient during his visit as if he had all the time in the world.He actually had another eight venues booked for that day.I still disapprove of his hunting activities but have to give credit where it's due. I was very impressed with him that day and I'm glad I met him.
