With preparations well underway for the coronation of King Charles III on Saturday May 6, the Prince and Princess of Wales, William and Kate, pop into the Dog and Duck pub in London's Soho. The couple greeted those gathered on the street, including Meredith Haker, who has travelled from the United States for the coronation. "I got to meet William, and it was really neat" she says, "he was very polite, very interesting...it was nice". William, the son of Britain's new monarch, was visiting the pub to pull the first ever pint of Kingmaker, a pale ale brewed to celebrate the coronation. IMAGES AND SOUNDBITES
