I am not a great fan of some members
of Royal family, but i do like The Queen. All her life, she has tried her best to serve her country in the best possible way and she is able to change with the times.
I will watching the Jubilee events on the tv. I am looking to watching the flypast
Totally in agreement as per certain members of the RF @Maria. But HM the Queen has always served our nation superbly.
During the ‘Parade of Sail’ on The Mersey in 1984 when the Tall Ships were leaving Liverpool I was aboard The Loyal Watcher a RNXS craft. We were tasked with keeping smaller boats away from HMY Britannia from where HM was watching the sail past.
When it was all over and Britannia was leaving HM and Prince Philip came to the rail and waved to us. It was a very proud moment for us.
The Queen does seem like a decent person, and has worked hard into her old age. But the monarchy is such a ridiculous, dated concept that should end when she passes
I feel sorry for Prince George, he has to wear a suit and tie to an evening concert. Why can’t he wear something comfortable like t shirt and trousers?
Edit: Seeing HRH Elizabeth with Paddington just melted my heart. How lovely.
