With a nonsense headline, unfortunately.

It's rather low - even for a French publication;)
Love the combined arms this month Warren!! The symbolism was brought on by the First World War if I remember correctly - to show the unity of the Empire, and that the Hungarians weren't forgotten.?
 
l love the way the queen is dressing now!!!! to bad she wasn't dressing with style in her yonger days.
 
Queen marks 54th year of reign



The Queen marked the 54th year of her reign and the anniversary of the death of her father by attending the Sunday service at a Sandringham church.
The Duke of Edinburgh accompanied her to West Newton church in Norfolk.
During the morning service the Queen presented 17 Sunday school pupils with awards for good attendance.

6 years until the Diamond Jubilee. I think we'll be seeing it too.
 
God save the Queen the Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II
 
How long till she ties with Queen Victoria and what day will she surpass her :) Thanks in Advance
 
Her Majesty Queen Victoria reigned for 63 years, 7 months and 12 days. Her Majesty Queens Elizabeth shall equal this reign on the 18th of September 2015. Her Majesty shall then become the longest reigning British monarch, and will no doubt continue a much longer reign even than that.

...............And the Queen, normally known for her cool composure, admitted that at times during last September's Ashes series the tension was so great she had to walk away from the TV................

What a lovely picture of the children playing in the ballroom! They are adorable, and the dresses of the girls look really cute. The whole scene makes the room come alive, so to speak.
