Prince Charles' travel habits are pretty ridiculous.

Prince Charles' travel habits are pretty ridiculous.

[For Prince Charles, that seems to mean bringing his own bed, toilet seat and toilet paper wherever he goes. [According to Tina Brown's new book, The Palace Papers, Prince Charles' former aide Michael Fawcett (previously famous as the man who smeared toothpaste on Prince Charles' toothbrush (which opens in a new tab)) was "like the baggage train on Tudor court trips, He oversaw "the paraphernalia that haunted his boss," Brown wrote in Page Six magazine. This included "the prince's orthopedic bed, a toilet seat, Kleenex velvet toilet paper, and two paintings of Scottish landscapes." (Thankfully, we can now rest assured that we know the exact brand of toilet paper the Prince prefers. Whew.")

This was true, Brown writes, not only for the prince's trips abroad where he would stay for a period of time, but even when visiting a friend's country home.

"When he went to stay at a friend's country home, a truck arrived the day before and brought his bed, furniture, and even pictures.

Also, unlike the queen, who always ate whatever was served, Charles would decide in advance what he wanted on the menu. For example, he would bring his own glass, to be handed to him by his butler, so that he could drink a pre-mixed martini (prepared by his guards) at any time.

Hey, does he like what he likes?
