Irie!!!

.

Party Prince Harry danced his socks off in blue suede shoes during his royal visit to Jamaica.

.

The prince was visiting Kingston when he was pulled to his feet by attractive

Chantol Dormer.

.

The 27-year-old royal proved that his rhythm was on par with jammin’ style as he boogey-down to a rendition of reggae legend Bob Marley’s “One Love”.

 .

That night Harry attended a black tie state dinner with Prime Minister

Mrs Portia Simpson.

.

In a well-received speech the prince had his audience eating out of his hand with a few jokes in the local patois.

.

He said: ‘I count it a great privilege to be standing here tonight, representing The Queen in Jamaica on her Diamond Jubilee. Her Majesty has asked me to extend her great good wishes to you all, and is sorry that she can’t be here - so you’re stuck with me… but don’t worry, cos every liddle ting gonna be aright! ‘

 .

‘Your vibrancy and vigour, your wonderful welcome to visitors and your island’s natural beauties - all combine to make Jamaica unique. ‬‪The Queen recognised this.

“DON’T  QUIT”

.

When things go wrong as they sometimes will

 

When the road you’re trudging seems all up hill,

 

When the funds are low and the debts are high,

 

And you want to smile, but you have to sigh,

 

When care is pressing you down a bit,

 

Rest if you must, but don’t you quit.

 

(~)~(~)~(~)

 

Life is odd with its twists and turns,

 

As everyone of us sometimes learns

 

And many a failure turns about,

 

When he might have won had he stuck it out.

 

Don’t give up though the pace seems slow,

 

You may succeed with another blow.

 

(~)~(~)~(~)

 

Success is failure turned inside out,
