my sister plays polo down the street from the club where this happened when she's at her college in palm beach... she's played there too, but didn't know the horses because they're ones that were visiting.

why wasn't there anything on 4/21 about princess isabella's birthday? apparently she shares a birthday with the queen... for people that follow denmark royalty, she's special because she's the first princess born into the family since queen anne-marie in 1946. princess isabella turned 2 this year.

Isabella is 2 years old. She is probably not even toilet trained yet. She is not engaged, not married, not divorced, not having babies. Lots of people share the same birthday.
Perhaps you have yet to catch on that most of the posts here are historic -- and more than 50 years old.
