PLAYFUL HARRY PUTS IN THE BOOT

SEND TO A FRIEND

20 JUNE 2006

The third-in-line to the throne put the royal boot in on Monday. Prince Harry was getting some assistance with his footwear from a protection officer when the cheeky Army officer decided to reward his helper with a playful push on the bottom.

"Harry gave a fair push, but it was all very light-hearted," one onlooker told a British newspaper. "He seems to have a very good relationship with his protection officers. In fact the officer couldn't stop laughing."

The sporty young lieutenant had taken a day off from tank training with The Blues and Royals to compete in the Calcot Manor Hotel Cup for charity at Beaufort Polo club. Regarded as a talented player, Harry led the Highrove team to victory, cheered on by family and friends including cousin Zara Phillips and her rugby player beau Mike Tindall.
