It's short for Rebecca! Aya is lovely, makes me think of Arya Stark ;)

I love that, partly because it's what Spike calls Dawn in Buffy...

It's Lilibet, apparently, which is the most adorable nickname ever invented! The story goes that Princess Margaret couldn't pronounce big sis's name when she was little, and her butchering of Elizabeth stuck. (That's also how I came by my own nickname, only "Bubba" is less cute)

I'll admit that as a royalist I'm biased, but this is pretty much the only baby on the planet that makes me feel broody.

I love you,

I hoped beyond hope that this would be a bit of self-aware mockery of Jez's hilariously bad overly-earnest train wreck of an article on the Ancient Egypt video. Having been a reader since 2007, I should have known better.

His girls are ADORABLE and yes, it exacerbated the crying (also, my mum used to dress me and my sister matching like that when we were little. So cute). Those kids have some incredible genes.

Ohhh that man. I love him so. Real tears were shed on Saturday.

Ohhhhh Berdych. Such a babe. I'd rather see Roger in the buff, but only just.

I confess that I cried when Federer lost today... I really thought he might have turned the tide at the beginning of the fifth set! But he and Djokovic were both class acts there at the end. Also, Fed's little girls in their matching dresses and french plaits were adorable!

As a former French Horn player I agree about the advice re: career as a musician (well, I still have my horn, but haven't played it since I graduated two years ago). I'd played since I was a kid and had a diploma by age 18 (I don't know if grades are the same in the US, but we have grades 1-8 then you take a diploma)…

I've loved him since he was Carter Baizen in Gossip Girl. He's also the Mad Hatter in Once Upon a Time. Now all I need for perfect happiness is for him to get a major part in the Vampire Diaries.

I'm don't know what Pippa's "place" is seeing how she's not a royal and isn't bound to old-timey castle law, but I'm pretty sure it ranks somewhere between the Princess Diana Beanie baby and the Queen's least favorite corgi.

I loved when she was asked why she got all dolled up in pearls and nice dresses to see bombing victims and visit air raid shelters - she said, "Well, they'd put on their best clothes to visit me!"

I really like Glamour, but maybe it's gone in a different direction here in the UK?

School leaver, hence Leaver's Ball :)

It looks from the waist down remarkably like the Karen Millen dress I wore to my Leaver's Ball (British prom). It wasn't a good look. The top looks marvellous, though.

BLAIR I'VE MISSED YOU SO MUCH!

He was in Buffy. HE WAS IN BUFFY. I can't believe it. I WATCHED THAT EPISODE NOT ONE WEEK AGO AND I DIDN'T REALISE!!
