First pictures of the Duchess of Cambridge on her official visit to Grimsby after flying in to Humberside Airport at Kirmington
The Duchess of Cambridge arrived in North Lincolnshire about 12.20pm today for her official visit.
There was a later-than planned touchdown at Humberside Airport in Kirmington due to foggy weather.
This afternoon's itinerary in Grimsby includes visits to the Fishing Heritage Centre, the main fire station in Peaks Lane and Havelok Academy.
One Scunthorpe woman was taking great interest in the visit.

Faye Corridan is due to have a baby the same time as Kate and she cannot wait to compare baby bumps.
Faye said: "I have been keeping up to date with the royals and its great that Kate is visiting such a local area. I am a big fan of hers and I hope she has a healthy, happy baby."

“A clue is in the article's title.
Leaving the reader in absolutely no doubt that whilst Grimsby, Kirmington and Humberside are mentioned - Scunthorpe is not.
Yet, despite this, Mr Hall opened the article and found it sufficiently interesting to not only read it thoroughly but to find time to comment on it too (more than once).
Incidentally, the word I used in my posting that resulted in a row of asterisks, begins with T and rhymes with "bird". I don't really consider this word to be sufficiently "foul language" to be "bleeped-out". Maybe ST should apply some "judgement".”

“Ah so just because the airport is in our county but she performed no duties in our it warrants the hype. No Harry Worth it wasn't Worth publishing.”

“Mayby it because the article features the future queen visiting travelling through Humberside Airport in Kirmington and visiting Grimsby - all of which are in Humberside region.
If Mr Hall and Hazzers prefer to read about dog **** patrols in Frodingham Road, then so be it.
But a number of us do like to read regional news too.”

“What the Dickens has this got to do with our area, you might as well say "It's been the hotest day of the year so far- in Grantham"
