No. They'll only be there as long as the people want them there.
We will be ditching them in the not too distant future, and what I've been reading from some people about the touching incident involving Mrs Obama is making me feel less unhappy about the prospect of a republic.

The Queen was joined by members of the Royal Family at an Easter Sunday service at Windsor Castle today.

-------------------------
 It is quite scary now that the new, less visible security has come into force. It is only since the announcement was made that members of the public have been allowed in, without security checks beforehand. 
-------------------------
The ladies of the Royal Family put on a full buffet of bonnets for their Easter services yesterday.
The unlikely culinary theme began with Princess Anne, who appeared to be providing the fruit course

I adore Her Majesties hat, it looks like she has blueberry coloured dazzles (chocolate sweets) on her hat.
What do you mean about security skydragon?
Yes Princess Anne's hat is very different. Sophie's hat is beautifully traditonal, and looks stunning on her :)

 Bag searches and ID were always the normal practice and at many services, if HM and the family were attending, it was only know regulars and pre approved members of the public allowed in to the service. Although I understand there is still a visible and non visible police presence, in order to cut back on costs, many of the ID checks are no longer made. In the present climate, not good, not good at all!

Princess Anne
I adore Anne's hat. Such a nice surprise for her.
She added some fun and fashion to the "Easter Parade".

I always admired the Queen for being dressed with charm , always adding little contrast, her hats, and for being a very witty woman. When she appears is like a soft light enters the room. She adds spicy too England. My favourite monarch!

From the Mail article
Quote:

Sophie, Countess of Wessex, appeared with what looked like an entire bird perched on her head. The tall, trilby-style design made its statement thanks to a variety of different feathers
|
Now we know why Edward was so desperate to have that dead bird!

I fails to understand the headlines when all the royal ladies hats have been seen in public several times before.

Maybe this is what he's doing for a creative outlet since he can't do films anymore.  
Actually, I quite like Sophie and Edward. I also like most of Sophie's clothes, but some of her hats are strange.

HM looks to be in very good form in these pics, and quite animated at times.
Always the focus of attention, she appears to be in her element holding court in Pic 5.
