Royal night-clubbing

After a complaint from Clarence House, the Daily Mail has withdrawn a picture of Prince William and his girlfriend coming out of a nightclub it had intended to publish. I'd like to know what the heir to the throne is doing slumming it with the drunken oiks and posh yobs in such a decadent place anyhow. What sort of recreation is noise and binge drinking - to say nothing of other "substances" - for a Prince of the realm?

He should be socialising with other members of the aristocracy in private mansions, away from the cameras. Here he could pursue appropriate princely activities: discuss the form of his horses, learn to drink claret and play Canasta.  He might attend the opera or a symphony concert or a Shakespeare play. Honestly - could you seriously picture any of our right royal yoofful oiks showing the slightest interest in anything beyond a pop concert?
