Any word on what the family did today? Did they end up going hunting?
This is not meant to be rude, Lady Gabrielle, but in the UK, 'hunting' is used when referring to riding to hounds [fox hunting etc.] What many Americans refer to as 'hunting' is referred to as 'shooting' in the UK. I hope you don't mind me pointing this out. To return to the main question, I do not know whether some form of shoot has gone ahead at Sandringham over the holiday period. News of this will doubtless emerge in due course.
Whilst on to the clarifications and corrections etc, could I reassure those forum members who were surprised when I posted earlier about the photo of the Queen striking a pheasant with her 'priest'. This was of course not one of her chaplains!! A 'priest' is a short wooden stick used on shoots!
