Twice I meet Prince Charles. The first was at Vaptopedi on the Holy Mountian, in 2002. I did not approach him to engage in converastion, as he was actively enganged in converastion with many Cypriots; (They being both overmanly moastic in number), their Spritiual Father being Father Joseph, himself, an early disciple of Joseph the Hesysacht(+1959). Thus, on Athos a predominatly Cypriot refuge.

But, we did make eye-contact.

In 2003 I was living in primitive hermitage, (no water, or heat), in Shropshire - three steps, I was in Wales; three steps back, back in England's fair and green land.

As Prince of Wales, his residence was only a few kilometres away.

As there was two hermits, upon this stony ground, he came for a day. To my immense surprise, he said: 'We have meet'...(thinking of the multitudes he encounters in performance of his Royal duties), I was frankly taken-a-back. He had no body-quards, 'hidden' operatives - only he, and us hermits.

It was a wonderful visit, he marvelled at my 'bed' - a wooden plank on the floor.

Aidan, a local iconograher, had been comminised to fresco, his private chapel.

Indeed, many marvellous words were spoken by him. I wish I could honour the visit, with words, gestures, body-languable..., one day he may speak, or write of our mutual sharing...
