This week, I bring you SO MANY hats, a dash of Wills and Harry (Kate is MAYBE coming to an event on Tuesday if she feels well -- man, she's having a tough time of it -- so that will be exciting if it happens), yet more Fabulous Poppy Pictures (I am incapable of resisting the Poppies At the Tower, and this week, QE2 popped by), people drinking, *mucho* Spanish pomp and circumstance, Beatrice's boyfriend, coats, and MORE.

ELSEWHERE for your enjoyment:

- [The *Telegraph* has video of Harry's speech at his event last night](https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/uknews/prince-harry/11169117/Watch-Prince-Harry-cracks-joke-at-WellChild-charity-dinner-about-being-seated-with-men.html?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io). Someone should do a study on the reason why Americans are SO INTO that accent, because although I cannot speak for all of my fellow countrypersons, I feel safe in saying it's extremely effective on most of us. (And not just the posh Harry accent. We will take almost any British accent. Or at least, I will.) I'm sure it has to do with some deeply Freudian Revolution something something crossed with some yada about the early days of the movies. One of you, get on that.
- The[ Mystery of Queen Victoria's Missing Strawberry Leaf Tiara](https://www.thecourtjeweller.com/2014/10/queen-victorias-strawberry-leaf-tiara.html?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io). (The Court Jeweller)
- The Court Jeweller ALSO brought us [THE BEST OF FERGIE'S HAIR.](https://www.thecourtjeweller.com/2014/10/royal-bonus-best-of-fergie-hair.html?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io)
- The Royal Digest[ takes an interesting look at Balmoral.](https://theroyaldigest.blogspot.co.uk/2014/10/royal-residences-balmoral-castle.html?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io)
- Speaking of Queen V, her bloomers were auctioned off this week. [What does one do with the undercrackers of a Queen?](https://www.express.co.uk/news/royal/522218/Queen-Victoria-Pants-Underwear-Sold-Auction-Price?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io) (The Express)
- Speaking of auctions, do you remember that [INCREDIBLY HIDEOUS PORTRAIT of Prince William](https://www.gofugyourself.com/royals-round-up-july-3rd-2014-07-2014/princewilliamportrait?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io)? [Well, it did NOT sell at auction -- Kate was clearly too sick to pull it together to buy it and hang it over the fireplace to torture Wills -- and was finally bought by a "private collector."](https://www.express.co.uk/news/royal/517635/Prince-William-Duke-of-Cambridge-Portrait-Sells?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io) So, Harry, presumably.
- From The History Vault**:** [An Endangered Species: Britain’s Non-Royal Duchesses](https://www.thehistoryvault.co.uk/an-endangered-species-britains-non-royal-duchesses/?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io). Fascinating stuff.
- Prince Albert [got the news about his twins on the phone](https://www.people.com/article/monaco-prince-albert-princess-charlene-twins?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io). (People)
- And *Hello!* says they're figuring out [how the succession laws are going to work in this instance over in Monaco right now](https://www.hellomagazine.com/royalty/2014101721480/princess-charlene-twins-announcement/?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io).
- Perhaps relevant to your interests, from All Things Georgian: [The 18th Century mystery of Oliver Cromwell’s missing head](https://georgianera.wordpress.com/2014/10/09/the-18th-century-mystery-of-oliver-cromwells-missing-head/?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io)
- They've[ figured out the route for Richard III's re-internment](https://royalcentral.co.uk/royalhistory/richard-iiis-reinterment-route-is-announced-38291?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io). As a Plantagenet myself I ASSUME MY INVITE IS IN THE MAIL.
- *W* invites you to meet the [Best Dressed Royal Babies](https://www.wmagazine.com/people/insiders/2014/10/best-dressed-royal-babies/photos/?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io).
- I've gotten some new mugs for my Collection of Royal Commemorative Mugs -- [I hope Kate has one of these, too, frankl](https://instagram.com/p/t6HG3HAK2t/?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io)y -- and these seemed like the right place to shout out [the Etsy store from which I usually get them,](https://www.etsy.com/shop/theroyalbritishfox?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io) in case you too like old mugs commemorating British royal events.
