followed by the media question time in front of
HRH Princes Shirley's Chapel of Nain.
                     
   
   
                     
    HRH Prince Graeme addresses the people and media for the first time as the new:
Sovereign of the Principality of Hutt River

Upon exiting Princess Shirley's Chapel of Nain last, HRH Princes Leonard and Graeme stop atop the steps so that
HRH Prince Graeme can address all those in attendance for his first time as the Sovereign of the PHR.
Some of his words are expressed in his first Royal Rhetoric as Sovereign.

where a cuppa, sandwich and a slice of cake (or two) could be shared with members of the Royal family
and of course our new Sovereign Prince Graeme.
