Prince Harry is running out of time if he wants to be around for the arrival of the royal baby. The prince was in London for a brief stopover at the weekend, but is heading back to Australia on Monday to continue his secondment with the Australian army. It means he might not be able to meet his new niece or nephew until mid-May.Harry, 30, is flying down under to spend time with army units in Perth and Sydney before embarking on his first tour of New Zealand from May 9 until May 16.
