Quote The Queen and the Duke of Edinburgh had lunch with Kate Middleton's parents today ahead of next week's much anticipated royal wedding.
It is believed to be the first time the monarch has met Michael and Carole Middleton, the future in-laws of Prince William.
Kate's parents, self-made millionaires thanks to their mail order business, were invited to Windsor Castle to have lunch with the royal couple.
A source described the gathering of the Middletons and the Queen and Duke as having a "warm atmosphere".
It is thought the lunch was a long-standing engagement in the diary of both the monarch and Kate's parents.
Also present were a small number of members of the Royal Household, thought to be private secretaries.
A Buckingham Palace spokeswoman confirmed the meeting, saying: "The Queen and the Duke of Edinburgh hosted Mr and Mrs Michael Middleton at a private lunch at Windsor Castle today."

Is this the first article we've had where it was Michael Middleton who was the focus?  usually he's in the background.
You may think you're cool, but do you have a smiley named after you?

I thought it was longer than a year since she's been writing little articles for them. I remember people saying she wrote pretty well exclusively about infant and children's parties and how to plan for them. A good opportunity to pop in mentions of Party Pieces.

She isn't very old to be a grandmother of four. She looks great for her age.

Online purchases with PP is ongoing during the Covid19, they are experiencing late deliveries to their customers, just like every other business that is working during this difficult times.

Here's an apology from their new CEO

Quote
Party Pieces CEO Steven Bentwood said: 'We are all aware of the challenging circumstances currently being faced by businesses as we look at new ways of working within government guidelines, during the Covid 19 crisis.
'However, it is very important that we sincerely apologise to our amazing customers, some of whom were waiting for online orders and were experiencing delays in receiving replies to their enquiries.
'With factors outside of our control, our customer service team did their best to follow up and ensure all customers were fully informed and reassured, and all orders that were suffering delays are now up to date.'

I wonder what Michael and Carole are dedicating their day to day.  I hope they are enjoying life,  they've earned it.

I agree with you!  I know that they are enjoying being close to their grandchildren. That is possibly one of the most important things one can do at their time of life.

I think charities and hospitals look to successful local businesses for donations and gifts. This is probably not the first time Party Pieces has been generous and it does say a lot about them.
