Their Royal Highnesses will first visit The Fire Station which has recently been converted into a music and arts hub.

There they will enjoy colourful performances of music, dance and theatre from local children and young people, and will finish by officially opening The Fire Station.

Kate and William will then travel to see the new Northern Spire bridge over the River Wear which is due to open in spring 2018.

Their Royal Highnesses will first meet local children whose generation will benefit

from the bridge in the future, before officially crossing the bridge and meeting the

engineers and construction workers who have made this a reality.

Why would someone in his position joke about a safety issue?  :eyes:   He has no sense of humor.  :no:

He is making a self deprecating remark because he put in the last bolt.

@Kritter- I do agree that British humor  is different from American.  Here is some information on British humor which is heavy on self-deprecating remarks.

A beginner?s guide to British humor - EF Blog (https://www.ef.com/blog/language/beginners-guide-to-understanding-british-humor/)

QuoteBritain?s unique take on humor may seem baffling at first. Heavy on self-deprecation, almost undetectable sarcasm, and constant deadpan delivery, British humor can feel like a whole new language. But fear not, we?ve put together a beginner?s guide to understanding (and using!) it.
Laugh at yourself

The key to understanding British humor is knowing not to take yourself too seriously. Our default humor is to highlight our own flaws. We make light of our failures so as to appear more humble, approachable and relatable. There is no room for egos in British humor. Awkward encounters, clumsiness and embarrassing moments are all well-established self-deprecation material.
