The photo entitled STIFF is appropriately entitled. I have never seen Prince Andrew look this stern before.

It looks like Prince Andrew was getting angry with the door! Was it that difficult to open it?

I would not be surprised if that happened. He usually has a hard time following directions.  :lol:
