Maybe the Earl and Countess of Harewood would be included. They have been before.

That photo of princess Alexandra and her brother is so sad. Two people who have been so supportive of the queen all their lives- that pic spoke volumes! The queen looks exceptionally beautiful. Perhaps she could give Anne some of her personal effects to sell so that she could afford some new clothes.

I love to see photos of events like this when the whole family get together.

I think the most elegant ladies are Sophie (I love her whole outfit - especially her coat), Beatrice (I love her skirt - it's really pretty), and Serena. I'm always disappointed by Anne's choice of outfit though.

I wouldn't be surprised Lady Marmalade if the Countess of Ulster is pregnant. Afterall, she has been married for four years.

Something tells me Anne would spend it on horses or attack dogs.

In my earlier post I was correct with the exception of Lady Helen and Timothy Taylor (for those who like lists) The Times added Lady Saulton to the royals present so the total was 36. http://www.timesonline.co.uk/article/0,,61-2227729.html

She is the daughter of the late Captain Alexander Ramsay of Mar, himself the only child of Princess Patricia of Connaught.

I like Princess Alexandra's shoes are very retro.
Somebody has seen that Marina takes always the same colours and the same clothes?. The black dress with the white jacket take it the past April's month and last year in Trooping of the colours 2005. I think than Princess Anne she must renew her clothes!.

He was not exactly sad. If you look at this article (posted in Prince William Current Events thread by Skydragon), you will understand why he (and Prince Harry) looked so, well, tired. :p

Kelly..Thanks for the Info.

Thats kind of reaching back to claim her as family. I need to check the list again to see if the Earl and Countess Harewood were there as well.

The Queen is not normally praised for cutting sartorial dash but didn't she look stunning yesterday?
