HRH THE PRINCESS ROYAL CONCLUDES HER VISIT TO SRI LANKA
Tumblr media
Her Royal Highness, The Princess Royal and her spouse Vice Admiral Timothy Laurence concluded a three-day official visit to Sri Lanka on Friday, 12 January 2024. The visit marked a momentous occasion celebrating the 75th Anniversary of bilateral relations between Sri Lanka and the United Kingdom and was characterized by a series of engagements that reinforced the deep ties between the two countries.
Tumblr media
Upon their arrival on 10th January, a vibrant ceremony with a multi-cultural performance welcomed them, with Foreign Minister Ali Sabry extending warm greetings.
Tumblr media
Visiting at the invitation of the Government of Sri Lanka, the official engagement kicked off with a welcome dinner hosted by President Ranil Wickremesinghe, reflecting the warm and cordial relations shared by the two countries during which Princess Royal delivered a message from His Majesty the King to the President and the people of Sri Lanka.
Addressing a gathering at the concluding reception hosted by the British High Commissioner, The Princess Royal remarked on the warm and friendly bilateral relations between the two countries and was committed to fostering cultural, economic and social connections. Foreign Minister Ali Sabry who delivered a short speech during this reception, remarked that the visit held profound significance and is a watershed moment in the 75 years of our bilateral relations with the United Kingdom. He also drew attention to the significant transformation Sri Lanka has undergone since The Princess Royal’s last visit in 1995. The Minister thanked the UK for its steadfast support for the pursuit of development and prosperity in Sri Lanka.
Tumblr media
In Colombo, as the patron of the Save the Children Foundation, Her Royal Highness visited its office and unveiled a plaque commemorating the 50th Anniversary of ‘Save the Children’ working in Sri Lanka, and undertook a visit to the Lady Ridgeway Hospital for Children, showcasing the commitment to social causes.
Tumblr media
Additionally, The Princess Royal toured the ‘MAS Holdings’ facility in Katunayake, a leading apparel tech company in South Asia as identified by the UK Fashion and Textile Association (UKFT), of which The Princess Royal is the President. During the tour she witnessed the state of the art technology and capabilities of the Sri Lankan apparel sector, reinforcing its role in Sri Lanka – UK trade relations.
The itinerary extended to Hatch Works, Colombo, an ICT innovation hub supporting start-ups, further highlighting the collaborative efforts in technological advancements and the promotion of entrepreneurial culture through facilitating access to essential infrastructure, knowledge, and capital. At the British Council, HRH was briefed on the ongoing work to build cultural and educational relationships between Sri Lanka and the UK and was privy to ‘The Arches of Awe exhibition’, featuring images of 21 arches built to welcome Queen Elizabeth II to Sri Lanka in 1954. As the President of the ‘Commonwealth War Graves Commission’ Princess Royal also visited the Commonwealth War Graves at Liverament Cemetery and laid a wreath to commemorate the dead in the aftermath of both World Wars I and II, symbolizing shared history and values.
Tumblr media
Moving to Kandy, the royal guests were welcomed by the Central Province Governor Lalith U Gamage, and were escorted to the sacred temple of the ‘Tooth Relic’, where she paid her respects.
Tumblr media
HRH The Princess Royal and Vice Admiral Timothy's visit to Jaffna marked a historic occasion, as the first-ever visit by members of the British Royal Family, where they were received by Northern Governor P. S. M. Charles. In Jaffna, the focus shifted to important aspects of post-conflict recovery visiting the Muhamalai Demining site and meeting communities resettled in mine–cleared areas in Muhamalai, signifying and reiterating the valuable contribution of donor partners, including the UK in creating a mine - free Sri Lanka. The Royals were also taken on a tour of the Jaffna Public Library recognized as a center for knowledge and cultural preservation, and met members of the local community.
Tumblr media
During their visit, the Royal Guests also toured the Vajira Pillayar Kovil, and took part in a special pooja blessing conducted by the chief priest. Princes Royal visited the ‘Mission to Seafarers’ as the President of this movement and had an engaging conversation with its Colombo staff reiterating the importance of seafaring to Sri Lanka as a maritime nation.
Tumblr media
The Princess Royal first visited Sri Lanka in 1995 and this year marked her second to the Island. Sri Lanka has received members of the Royal family on seven previous occasions since 1948, including , Her Late Majesty Queen Elizabeth II who visited the island just five months after her Coronation, and that of His Majesty the King, as the Prince of Wales on three occasions.
Tumblr media
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs worked in close coordination with the British High Commission in Colombo, which played a pivotol role in the execution of the programme assisted by the Sri Lanka High Commission in London and all other local government agencies. This historic visit by HRH The Princess Royal led to a comprehensive exploration of the diverse facets of the relationship between Sri Lanka and the United Kingdom.

I am multi-faceted and can't decide between fluff and smut today. Lol. So, NSFW Snuggle and/or SFW Clothing for 🐺 (duh)? If you do the clothing one, maybe Jack wearing his girl's shirt? It's always the girl wearing the guy's stuff. Let's branch out. Lol. Jack is smol. It would work. Hah.
Sideways related, because wolf, but I'm enjoying the 10th Kingdom gifs you've been posting too. 👍
Glad you enjoy the 10th Kingdom content! I put that in my queue when I rewatched it some time ago so this is just perfect timing for more woof content 😂
I am going with the sfw prompt because it immediately gave me an idea (took a bit longer though because I saw your ask really late last night and was already half asleep by that point 😅). You did say girl's shirt (and I agree more boyfriends should wear their girlfriend's clothes) but it turned more gn!reader other than the mention of reader owning dresses (fashion has no gender but ya know).
Hope you like it 💙
Tangled Up
Send me a prompt and a character and I'll write a reader drabble

[CLOTHING] Person A finds Person B wearing their clothing.
You were exhausted. If everything had worked out like you had planned you'd have been in bed cuddling with your boyfriend hours ago. But of course things didn't go like you wanted them to. 
The door falls closed behind you with a heavy thud. You throw your bag to the side carelessly and walk into your flat but there is no sign of Jack. You expected him to perk up at the first sign of your arrival but alas neither hide nor hair of your werewolf boyfriend in either the living room or kitchen. 
"Jack? I'm home, baby!" 
Your call is left unanswered. That's unusual. Your brows furrow as you wander your flat until you stand in front of your bedroom door. Inside you hear a soft whimper. Your heart sinks into your stomach, dread pulling it down heavily. 
Was Jack hurt? Is that why he didn't greet you as soon as you entered the flat? 
With panic rising in your throat you open the door. The sight that greets you takes your breath away. 
In what can only be described as a nest of clothing lies Jack, dressed in nothing but a very familiar looking hoodie. He's curled around your pillow, your pajamas squished between it and his face. Every inhale of air is followed by a soft little whine from Jack. 
He looks so cute that it hurts you physically. 
You clear your throat awkwardly and at the sound his face immediately pops up. As Jack sees you his eyes grow wide and with an excited yelp he tries to scramble off of his makeshift nest. In his haste he gets tangled in some of the laundry. It's an adorable sight, like a puppy stuck in a blanket. 
You try and fail to stifle your giggling as you watch Jack struggle to get out of his nest. You decide to have mercy on him and walk over to him. He looks up at you as you stand at the edge of the bed, his eyes sparkling with joy. Dear god, you were only gone for a while but you've missed him. And by the Look in his eyes know he missed you too. 
You lean down and place a soft kiss on his lips. 
"Sorry for keeping you waiting, love" 
"You're here now. That's what matters, mi amor."
Your eyes wander his handsome face and travel downwards to the hoodie he had wrapped himself in. On closer inspection you realize why it looked so familiar. 
"That's mine, isn't it?" 
Jack tries to hide his embarrassment and his face inside the hoodie. His antics make you laugh again. He mumbles something into the soft fabric that you don't quite catch. 
Your hands cup his face and you tilt his head up tentatively, his eyes looking right into yours. No words leave your lips, you just raise your eyebrow, silently asking him to repeat himself.
"It's all yours,” he admits, gesturing towards the piles and piles of clothing. Shirts, pants, dresses, underwear, everything he could get his hands on, “I missed you, mi vida. So I-...well…"
You can feel the heat in his cheeks against your fingers. You're breathless for a moment, your heart pounding in your chest. He had missed you so much that his first instinct was to surround himself with your things, your scent. 
The love you feel for him swallows you whole, like crashing waves pulling you down. It’s too much all at once, this ocean of emotion in which you'd gladly drown.
“I love you,” you choke out the words, tears of joy threatening to spill out at a moment's notice. His kind eyes watch you, his own breath caught in his throat as he recognizes the raw emotion on your face. His hands find yours against his cheek and he pulls them to his mouth, his lips peppering soft kisses to your palm and wrist.
“I love you too. More than words can describe.”
Jack pulls you towards him onto the bed. You follow his lead and join him on the pile of laundry that you’ll have to take care of at some point. But those thoughts were for later. Much later.
You lay together and bask in each other's presence. Jack curls around you like he had with your pillow before you found him and mirroring his movements you entangle your limbs with his until you don’t know where he begins and you end. You bury your face into his neck to breathe him in. You don’t need his enhanced sense of smell to notice how the scent of your favorite perfume that still clings to the fabric of your hoodie mingles with his own. You’re usually not the possessive kind and yet heat coils in your stomach.
You try to pull him even closer to you, only your clothes as a barrier between your two bodies. You want to feel his skin on yours but for now you are too comfortable just existing like this, with him curled around you and you curled around him in turn. A pleased sigh escapes Jack as you squeeze him tighter, his hands holding onto you like he never wants to let you go. And you return the sentiment. There is nothing that could come between you now, nothing that could make you let go of him. At least until you decide to strip Jack out of your favorite hoodie.

This post got me more interested in the podcast.
Since it seems that all of Northuldra's participation in the franchise (excluding "Disney Magic Kingdoms") seems to need to have direct approval from the Sami tribe (I'm increasingly buying into that theory), the main topic of this podcast being related to the tribe leaves things more interesting.
After a film developed around the Alta dam, why not a podcast talking about copper mining that also affected the Sami tribe?
But while this might indicate that the Northuldras might have some relevance, I'm already braced for disappointment, for even if they do have relevance, it will be minimal. The main human group looks like it really will be: Elsa, Anna, Kristoff, and Mattias. If there is Honeymaren or Ryder it will be a big surprise (I already gave up rooting for Yelana), especially if there are ElsaMaren moments.
Tumblr media
Environmental and political issues. Elsa, who practically plays Mother Nature when she's not in Ahtohallan as a librarian, the franchise has chosen its path and I'm not against that path especially when that path works perfectly with my theory involving the Industrial Revolution in "Frozen 3".

this week a friend of mine showed me the 10th kingdom & it has some of the worst creative decisions i have ever seen.
atrocious visual effects that just could have been cut entirely (really, you have no idea. without them the series would have been so much better. they have a singing ring but its face is so ugly it's nightmare fuel. it cheerily sings about a more or less unwanted pregnancy at the end). ugly ugly costume design. dumb abusive men, one of them as the romantic lead, who still are more interesting than the heroine herself who has no personality whatsoever. it's a series which relies on the audience's knowledge of the grimm's fairytales yet near the end it wastes precious time retelling snow white in the most bland way possible. it has a version of we will rock you but it's about shearing. also a whiter shade of pale plays in a swamp.
it's trash it's trash it's trash but in the most exciting way possible. it's the reason i ponder the idea of starting to make video essays bc it would absolutely deserve a 2h deep dive.
-10/10, can't recommend. and yet...

10th Kingdom AU Sweet Tarts I need to hear all about this, I loved that show!!!!
I loved that show too!!! It will come as no surprise that Wolf remains a favorite character of mine to this day.
That particular document is a mix of notes that read like answers for a headcanon ask game and me rewriting/expanding on the ending to To Follow Where You Are, though from Carrie's POV.
The Casting I had was primarily of the main four: Alex as Prince/The Golden Retriever dog. Trevor and Carrie as essentially themselves. Reggie as Wolf.
Reggie would not be recruited by the evil queen though he would still stumble upon Carrie and the trolls and help Carrie rescue herself. This isn't the first time a crazed fan's tried kidnapping her before. And at first Reggie and Carrie go through a series of "I know you are speaking the same language as me but what you are saying is utter nonsense" moments with each other before they figure out what happened.
It takes a bit longer for Reggie and Carrie to meet up with Trevor and Alex. And while I know I had thought up more, I neglected to write it down. :/
Here is a snippet of the Carrie POV rewrite:
However, she may have been worried for nothing. His hand dug into her hair to hold her in place and keep the kiss going when she tried to pull away. A hold that only grew firmer when he took a sharp inhale through the nose.  She swung a leg over his lap so she could straddle his thighs and get closer, one of her hands held his bicep to keep her steady while the other followed his lead and played with the hair on the back of his head.  His groan deepened into a growl as she pulled his bottom lip between her teeth. “Mine,” she whispered against his mouth.

Lesotho's parliament has debated a motion to claim huge swathes of territory from its much larger neighbour, South Africa.
An opposition MP wants to declare Free State and parts of four other provinces "Lesotho's territory".
The people of Lesotho, called Basotho, lived in these areas until the 19th Century, when they were seized by Afrikaners - white South Africans.
Many Basotho still live in South Africa, especially in Free State.
The Sesotho language is one of South Africa's 11 official languages, spoken by about four million people in the country, as well as the two million inhabitants of Lesotho.
Africa Live: Updates on this and other stories from the continent
PODCAST: Why some people in Lesotho want parts of South Africa
"It's time for what is ours to be returned to us," Tshepo Lipholo, the MP behind the motion, told Lesotho's parliament, speaking in Sesotho.
"History has a record of what was taken from our people and that people were killed in the process. It is time to correct that," he said.
Parliament has adjourned until Thursday when the debate will continue.
In Mr Lipholo's vision, Lesotho would grow from 30,000 sq km (11,600 sq miles) to around 240,000 sq km (93,000 sq miles).
He said that while this was an issue dating back many decades, he believed it was important to address in the present day because the land would help bring prosperity to the people of Lesotho.
He is the leader of the Basotho Convention Movement, which campaigned on the issue during last year's election, gaining a single seat, which he holds.
The landlocked kingdom of Lesotho is largely mountainous with limited agricultural space.
The former British protectorate is heavily dependent on the country which completely surrounds it - South Africa.
Over the decades thousands of workers have been forced by the lack of job opportunities at home to find work in South African mines.
The Lesotho government is yet to comment on the issue but it is unlikely to risk antagonising its much larger neighbour by backing it.
Mr Lipholo's motion is based on a 1962 United Nations resolution that recognised the right to self-determination and independence for the people of Basutoland - as Lesotho was then called.
The view from South African officials is that the motion to reclaim territories some Basotho view as their own does not stand a chance of happening, because it does not enjoy the support of the majority in Lesotho.
One of the key stumbling blocks is the 1964 Cairo Declaration of the Organisation of African Unity, now the African Union, whereby African leaders agreed to recognise the existing borders of their newly independent countries, even if they were drawn up by colonial powers, to avoid stirring up conflict across the continent.
Mr Lipholo has previously told Lesotho media that he also hopes to have the motion discussed in the British Parliament "since it was the UK that gave Lesotho its independence in 1966, without correcting the borders seized by the Afrikaners".
This is not the first time that Lesotho's present-day borders have been a topic of discussion. In 2018 a civil group known as the Free Basotho Movement wrote to the Lesotho's UK embassy to request that the late Queen Elizabeth remove the current frontier - essentially making Lesotho a 10th province of South Africa.
They said this would ensure free movement of Basotho people in South Africa and the perks South African nationals enjoy. That matter is ongoing.
