Welcome to the World Prince George!

Say Hello to Our New Prince!

Congratulations to citizens of the UK and around the world! It's official! The third in line to the throne, Prince George Alexander Louis was born on Monday 22nd July 2013, at 4:24pm, at St Mary's Hospital in London. The name George was the bookmakers' favourite for the name of the Royal Baby, with the names Alexander and Louis also one of the popular options. There have been six King George's to date, with the most recent being the Queen's father.
Some opinions suggest the name Alexander is in tribute to the Queen... whose middle name is Alexandra. Other theories claim it is in honour of Alexander the Great, the ruler in the 4th century.
The name Louis is quite sentimental to the royal family, as it is Prince William's fourth name and by having one of the baby's names as Louis, it is thought to be a tribute to Lord Louis Mountbatten, the Duke of Edinburgh's uncle! Prince George can look forward to a fruitful and exciting upbringing, with Prince Harry promising to show George "how to have a good time". The family in the Palace however will be expected to celebrate! We can expect balloons and lots of confetti to be around the palace in the coming week or two!

Summer Parties and Music Festivals

How to party this summer!

Summer is finally here! Let all the partying and music begin!

Summer parties have kicked off with dancing and music, fancy dresses and exciting themes, with people around the world enjoying the hot weather and fun nights. Summer parties can have different themes, including the 70's Hippie theme, Hawaiian theme and the Mexican theme. Most parties use accessories such as banners, balloons, and whistles. Many summer parties also feature different games, even pranks and tricks. Summer parties typically involve multi coloured lighting, candles and party sparklers,

It's that time of the year where the music festivals are going on weekly during summer, with all the big names in music coming together to rock the UK. The T In The Park music festival in Glasgow, Scotland is running from the 12-14th July, and with headliners Rihanna, The Killers, and Mumford & Sons, it is expected to be a memorable event. With big names such as Kasabian and Snow Patrol performing in 2012, the T In The Park had a record breaking 85,000 ravers last year. More are expected this summer, with an expansive and interesting line up to take the show on. The Wireless festival is back from the 12-14th July, more exciting than ever. Headliners feature Justin Timberlake, Jay-Z, and Emili Sandé to take the stage. Last year's Wireless audience filled the area with hundreds of light sticks as Drake and Rihanna took the stage. One can expect a rave at the Lovebox festival this year, from 19th-21st July in London, as big names such as Plan B, Goldfrapp and Azealia Banks will perform. Summer is well underway and it looks to be a fun one!
