DEAR JULIE MEYER: This army of unpaid digital entrepreneur interns you propose. Do they come with batteries included? #bbcqt

[Prince Charles @CharlesLetters]

. . . and none of your sauce, young Pip Wotchitt, you cheeky six year old chimney sweep or I'll hang you by the highest gibbet! Marvellous.

[Prince Charles @CharlesLetters]

Why here's a shiny farthing and the afternoon off for Christmas, dear Mr Blottwimple. Such larks, eh? Grime and roast sparrow for supper!

[Prince Charles @CharlesLetters]

DEAR DICKENS: Happy 200th! Glad time, yours, to live, I bet. Ah, Reverend Wellbeloved! How bides Miss Pureflower and Mrs Crattywitch?

[Prince Charles @CharlesLetters]

DEAR MOTHER: 60 years, eh? That's some "innings". All the best from we who wait patiently in the pavilion as the shadows lengthen . . .

[Prince Charles @CharlesLetters]

@pawboy2: One also hears that "Bleecker Bobs", the New York disc store is to become a Starbucks.

Forgot to mention - competition for free copies of Prince Charles Letters Book - I've entered! http://t.co/uIvVtMpH

Jolly nice review of my Letters plus fascinating glimpse into new novel project. Odd to read fictional version of self! http://t.co/uIvVtMpH

So, after the first African-American President, the first Amphibian-American President?

[Prince Charles @CharlesLetters]

DEAR COMMONERS - YOU PEOPLE: Saddened and shocked. You begrudge us even a boat? After all we've done? We'd do the same for you.

[Prince Charles @CharlesLetters]

Should one really say unpleasant things about the practically dead? http://t.co/s5t611Cs

[Prince Charles @CharlesLetters]

HAPPY 2012 EVERYBODY: Every year, I rather sort of wish for, and rather sort of don't wish for, the same thing. Never happens, anyway.

[Prince Charles @CharlesLetters]

DEAR EXPRESS: Regarding today's cover: I find it not at all ironic that my father should be the victim of a gaffe. http://t.co/hjqLS2n0

[Prince Charles @CharlesLetters]

DEAR ALL: Wishing you all a happy and holistic Christmas and a tremendously interesting New Year.

[Prince Charles @CharlesLetters]

DEAR ALAN HANSEN? "Coloured"? Even my father knows that's not quite right. Says it, of course, but knows it isn't right.

[Prince Charles @CharlesLetters]

DEAR KIM JONG-UN: 28? You are a "jong 'un" all right! 28 and already your turn? It isn't fair. Isn't blasted, bloody, ruddy fair! 28!

[Prince Charles @CharlesLetters]

DEAR CAMERON: "Christian values"? I'd be wary. Jesus was a tremendous teacher but not to be taken literally (I hope!) on the topic of money.

[Prince Charles @CharlesLetters]

A shame about this Hitchens fellow, I suppose, but some perspective, please. It's not momentous, like my father dying, or something.
