Thank you for this quite interesting page. After a rather quick look l noticed that for the 26 and 27th of June you counted the various visits (different organizations/places) as just one big engagement for the day...I wonder why, I would have counted each separately.
ReplyDeleteThe Visits on the 26th & 27th of June were apart of the “Homewards” Programme launch. The royals sometimes visit multiple locations as part of an official engagements, or might have a audience before a reception, etc.
DeleteWe count everything for the same organization or project that is done in a day as one engagement. This helps to deal with the ambiguity and inconsistency of the Court Circular.
