Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh and beloved husband of Queen Elizabeth II is celebrating his 90th birthday today. At ninety years of age he still looks every bit the picture of vitality and health and long may he continue to do so. A doting father and grandfather, he is perhaps one of the most affable and respected of all the Royals. His penchant for making embarrassing gaffs at inopportune moments, otherwise know as 'putting your foot in your mouth' makes him appear more human and therefore more endearing to the British public. From amongst the many gaffs; “You’ll go home with slitty eyes”, as spoken to a British student in China; “Do you still throw spears at each other?” to Aborigines in Queensland; and on the subject of women, ‘When a man opens the car door for his wife, it’s either a new car or a new wife.’
No doubt Prince Philip will be getting some lovely birthday presents this year but if you're wondering what to get someone with a June birthday, here are some June facts and gift ideas to help.
