8th December Harry's guide to happiness

In a bid to show he is just a man of the People, (and certainly not of The Mail) Harry Windsor-Markle has revealed how you too (and I suppose Me2) can just pack in your job if its causing you to have a bit of a mental.

Question your purpose in life. Offering tips on his new podcast, Harry reflects on the things he asked himself when struggling with his well being. Things such as  Are you feeling unfulfilled? Do you get up in the morning wishing you didn’t have to go to work? Tired of dressing up in a uniform? Still not sure who your Dad really is? Are there things you’d rather do rather than waving, shaking hands and declaring things to be open? Would you prefer to just mess about with children, chickens and Californians? If the answer to any of these is even remotely yes, then just pack it all in and walk away.

Ignore the trolls    Forget about all people who’ll try and play the guilt game by forcing you to stay in your current role. Ignore the voices saying ' But Harry you're the new face of the Royal family' or ‘But what else can you do?’ or even ‘Listen, being sixth in line to the throne isn’t exactly a job anyway’. And certainly don't listen to anyone telling you that your big brother and his wife are just nailing it. Just think about yourself and your family by unilaterally terminating your employment without consequence. Then slag off your former work colleagues.

Take time out Whatever you do don't panic. Chillax. Take a few months to get your head together. Try a couple of countries and see if a local government will foot the bill. If not then just ask one of your celebrity friends if you could just crash as their house rent free for oh a few months.

Sign a TV deal Strike up a multi million dollar TV deal even thought you have no experience at all in this area. Arrange to do a series of programs that include buzz words in the title like well being, zoneing, CBT or something vaguely related to Gwynneth Paltrow's nether regions. Maybe your wife can also pull a few strings in the industry to help out

Bitch about it with Oprah. Better out than in that's the motto so just talk about it, reminding everyone as you wash all your dirty laundry in public, that more than anything else in the whole wide world you want your privacy and to be left alone.

Embrace new skills. Look at this life change as a way to learn new challenging skills like dressing yourself, looking after your own children, paying for stuff and packing your own bags, not just to go on a round the world tour but also at your local Aldi. After all you're gonna need things like that in order to be a Chief Impact Officer' in mental health start-up

Don’t worry, be happy. At the end of the day it all boils down to whether you are happy. Bugger the rest of em. And if you just can't be happy then rest assured the millions you have squirrelled away in the bank will make being miserable a lot easier to endure.

6th May Olbia

Image
  A chance to stretch our legs today with our first port of call; Olbia, Sardinia. And it was a quick stretch too due to it being only a five hour stay. Up bright and early, so early in fact that the hot food at the buffet wasn't even ready to be served. Still it gave us a chance to watch the ship glide into port past a host of oyster/mussel beds, before performing a 180 degree turn to reverse into it's berth. A couple of short bus rides later and we were in downtown Olbia. But there an hour or so before anything appeared to open, the disadvantage of being early birds and something we don't seem to learn! Not that Olbia had a great deal to see or maybe if we had done the slightest bit of planning beforehand there might have benn but we didn't. It was pleasant enough but that's about it. It was pleasant enough but nothing special, indeed we were back on the ship after just a couple of hours ashore and then managed to sleep away most of th...

7th May Naples

Image
 I'm sure I've heard the phrase 'see Naples and die' suggesting that it is perhaps not the nicest location in the Mediterranean but if it's good enough for Diego Maradona fir a few years then it's good enough for me for 10 hours. Although the millions of tax free pounds he was paid might have eased his stay. By the time we got up, washed, dressed and up to The Kitchens, the rest of the ship were already there. Compared to the Marie Celeste of yesterday it was absolutely packed, presumably with people having breakfast before heading out on 8am excursions, our excursion was simply going to be the city of Naples itself as possible trips to Vesuvius, Pompei or the Amalfi coast would have been too much / tired.  So on a day when the weather initially seemed uncertain, we jumped aboard route A for the Hop on Hop off bus and headed out into the mayhem that is the Napoli traffic where it was every van, car and scooter for the selves. I think it's bes...
