Intresting story from the Sun, though i wonder how true it is. lol.

Don't you know who I ma'am? | The Sun |HomePage|News|Royals

I do sometimes wonder if the British tabloids all have adopted the same motto: "Don't let truth get in the way of a good story."

It was funny to read. Angela got hysterical. I guess the guards did the right thing. It's nice to see who the Queen chooses for fashion sense. Thanks for sharing the article.

You are most welcome, Conny, and a special "Willkommen"-welcome at the forums

Here's another link about yesterday's dinner:

Queen lays on golden jubilee banquet for the Aga Khan and family

It's nice to see that she wore a dress with special golden details..

Khaliya is the Prince Hussain's wife, the American-born Kristin, who took the name Princess Khaliya on their marriage two years ago.
Prince Hussain is Prince Amyn's son.

Prince Hussain is Prince Amyn's son.
Prince Hussain is the second of the Aga Khan's three sons. As far as I know Prince Amyn is unmarried and childless.

Y'know, this may sound a bit silly.. but I think HM has been looking younger and livelier in the last few months than she has for the past couple of years.

I fear: no

The Queen and Prince Philip visit the 150th Great Yorkshire Show
in Harrogate, North Yorkshire, England on July 10, 2008. The Royal
visitors were shown the event's many attractions, including the
sheep and cattle breeders ring, riding demonstrations and a
champion cattle parade.

I think one of the most fascinating things about EIIR (and is shown in those photos) is that she is able to do a 'real smile' so often. Sociologists have long since defined the 'social smile'; basically just baring your teeth, no involvement of the rest of the face. True smiles involve the eyes and so on.

Well she's looking at farm animals. HM is a country woman at heart!
