Queen Elizabeth II to mark 83rd birthday - Yahoo!7 News

Queen Elizabeth II will mark her 83rd birthday on Tuesday with a low-key day at Windsor Castle, but she won't have the day off work, Buckingham Palace said.

The Queen's London office said the monarch has nothing special planned or any public engagements scheduled, but she will probably go through the stack of official papers she receives as head of state. She has long done that every day of the year, except on Christmas .

NBC2 News - Queen Elizabeth a fan of Tabasco sauce

Her Majesty is a bit of a hotty -- when it comes to her food. The makers of Tabasco sauce say Queen Elizabeth II favors the fiery condiment.

The Louisiana-based McIlhenny Co. will be honored with the ultimate seal of approval, a Royal Warrant of Appointment.

The Queen instructed staff to arrange a "low key" 83rd birthday party - because of her concerns over the recession.

I should think so, she does enjoy two birthdays each year!

I hope however that she will wear new clothes for The Birthday Parade and the days at Royal Ascot Races, because I will be there on both occasions, the Trooping the Colour ceremony and Opening Day at Royal Ascot in the Royal Enclosure. Hope to see her and perhaps to have the opportunity to speak to her and her family.

You know that Edward and Sophie often frequent curry restaurants. Did anyone ever watch the TV series - Roswell?

The Queen was prevented from using the Royal box on a surprise visit to a racecourse - because it was already full.

HM always has a sparkle in her eye when she's at the races. She seems to come alive, and looks just like any other well turned out enthusiastic race-goer. I think her outfit is very fetching, too.

The Crown Estate is akin a government department or agency. What's HM got to do with their business decisions? Silly story.

The Duke of Edinburgh Prince Philip looks on at Windsor Castle,
on April 25, 2009. Prince Philip was attending a parade of MG
cars driving around the Quadrangle of Windsor Castle, to mark
the 85th Anniversary of the vehicle. The cavalcade was made
up of over 200 MG models covering the 85 years of production.

Pig prophecy promotes Prince Philip to Pacific deity - ABC News (Australian Broadcasting Corporation)

Time is running out for a remote tribe in Vanuatu, which is waiting for the return of a most unlikely deity.

The people of Yakel, on the southern island of Tanna, venerate Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh.
