...to HM The Queen on becoming Britain's longest serving monarch, though she has a few years to go to beat the current King of Thailand (69 years) and Louis XIV of France (72 years).

No champagne until 5.30pm, your Maj, and your followers, and then you can put your fingers up at Queen Vic. Well done.

I would have thought a little coupe de quelque chose, minty.....

I would even share my Ferrero Rocher !

I can't remember a time when Queen Elizabeth was not on the throne. I am really pleased that she has now become the longest serving monarch. What an achievement and looking back at the photographs over the years, what a beautiful lady. I wish many more happy years for her.

Yes a very special lady who has spent almost 23,226 days and 16 hours in the service of our country, and that is not counting her service during WW2.

He did have the slight head start though, being made King at 4 months old.

Mary was Queen of Scots when she was six days old. Sobhuza was obviously a late developer.

Well done to our Madge, her family is almost as bonkers as mine.
