King Charles III has a busy schedule planned, intending to attend several high-profile events in the next six weeks. These include the Chelsea Flower Show, Trooping the Colour, Garter Day, Royal Ascot, and a state visit by the Emperor of Japan. Despite his doctors expressing satisfaction with his health, they, along with Camilla, the Queen Consort, are advising him to pace himself. Camilla discreetly reminds the King to slow down by including notes in his briefings with phrases like "softly, softly catches the monkey" and "prudens qui patiens," which means "the prudent man is patient."
In addition, King Charles III has awarded 150 new royal warrants to various suppliers that cater to his personal preferences. These range from wine merchants and cheesemongers, to a ski equipment maker, and providers of royal fishing tackle. Camilla has procured seven royal warrants for her needs, covering items from jewelry to stationery and including luxurious vendors like Fortnum and Mason.
Furthermore, King Charles III recently participated in an official ceremony on March 13, where he passed on the role of Colonel-in-Chief of the Army air corps to his son, Prince William, the Prince of Wales.
