Prince of Wales will help regenerate 50 villages using pubs as community 'hubs'

You watch how many country pubs will change their name to ' The Prince of Wales' now to get backing - the more daring might go for 'The King Charles'

Don't they choose their name when they are crowned? Also shouldn't it be The King William, surely Charley will never warm that seat?

one pub has already changed it's name in honour of Charles:-

Yes, and some time back Charles said he wanted to be titled King George VII if he ever accedes (it's one of his middle names).

I'm glad you confirmed that I was actually thinking I had made it up. What is it with heads of churches?
