Take A Rest, You've More Than Earned It.

She's surprisingly active for 95 - now is the time for her to take it a lot easier, bless her.

I don't think that the Queen would ever retire, but as she is doing now, having to take it easier. She has done her work for many years and deserves a bit of a rest now.

apparently she doesn't cook but the rest of the family, formerly including Philip, do

Having said that, I have just read that she doesn't cook, but Philip did a lot of cooking and was annexcellent chef. My son does all the cooking in his house!

[pat2604]

Jno, snap again!

[Gromit]

Lillibet is how the family refer to her.

She deserved to have packed up years ago.
Charles is more than able to stand around and say And do *** all.
Brexit is getting blamed for everything. A nice Scandi Queen would be very welcome.

[pat2604]

She appently gets her own breakfast by pouring cornflakes into a bowl!!

[anneasquith]

She put the country before family. Big mistake.

[Mozz71]

Why is that a mistake Anne?

[pat2604]

'Apparently' in case Gully mentions it. Arthritic fingers shake!

[anneasquith]

I would think mozz if she had devoted more time to her family they may not be as dysfunctional as most of them are . EG. Charles married his mother substitute camilla ,

[pat2604]

Mother substitute?? He should have married her in the first place and not Diana. There is an obvious romantic love between Camilla and Charles.

[Gromit]

There are a pair of ready made Greeks, eager to take over.

A queen/kings duty is primarily a duty to his/her country. This is how she was taught and always behaved. Times have changed somewhat now.

[ladybirder]

Absolutely Lottie. They are always laughing and look so happy together. It's nice to see a couple like that I think, albeit a Royal one.

[Mozz71]

Anne, as I said, I'm no royalist, but I'm also no royal hater. Of HRH's children, only Andrew is dysfunctional. Anyone else in the family *cough*Harry*cough* isn't the Queen's responsibility.

As for "mother substitute", that's very harsh. There's only a year or so between them in age, and it seems pretty certain that they'd been very much in love for many years, with Camilla's marriage being the only thing in their way before Diana appeared on the scene.

[Barmaid]

In terms of nicknames, I understand her late husband referred to her as "cabbage".

[Cloverjo]

Where did they pop Diana from? She was only 19 when she and Charles married. Jeez, quite scary really

[pat2604]

Queen Cabbage! Ha ha. I wonder why??

[anneasquith]

Princess Anne’s first husband was called ‘ fog’ , allegedly, .

[naomi24]

Just have a bit of respect for a great lady who has given her whole life in service to this country. Her name is Elizabeth.
