William gets reply from the Palace 8th October 1982 - Royalty

Five year old William Coates of Abbotsham Road, Bideford - Pictured above with his mother - was so proud that the royal baby of Prince Charles and Princess Diana was given the same christian name as himself that he just had to write them a letter.

William has been delighted to receive a letter of thanks from Buckingham Palace and has taken it to show his friends at St  Mary's School, Bideford.
