Princess Alexandra will undoubtedly hope to participate in all Alexandra Rose Days. However, she is an old lady, (over 80,) and has experienced a lot of bad health over the past year or so.

Also, at least for senior and the more high profile royals-- The Queen, Charles and Camilla, the Cambridges, Harry--their offices at BP, KP, CH have taken to often not announcing their engagements and arrangements until just before they happen, or not at all as with the Queen's surprise visit to Manchester yesterday to see the victims of the terrorist bombing there. I'm not sure that this will cover minor royals such as the Gloucesters and Kents, but it may very well do so to a certain extent, and with the nation on high alert that's likely to continue for the foreseeable future, IMHO. 


(On another note, I've also noticed that the official website that takes note of engagements of the BRF has been neglected since it was redesigned late last year. A lot of engagements for all members of the royal family haven't been recorded for February when it's known that they did indeed carry them out (photos in the newspapers, etc) and some dates in May are missing as well. If the staff at the Palaces and at CH have decided to have such a new 'improved' website, (and they did)  then keep the darn thing accurate and up to date, I say, 'cos it's no use to man nor beast the way it is.)
