Okay, here's the dumb question of the week from Russo: What exactly do they DO when they have a private audience with HM? I certainly don't think they are chatting about corgi blood lines.

on a private occasion.. ;)

The Queen always looks radiant in red! What brooch is she wearing? It appears small but still impressive.

The brooch is a butterfly in diamonds with ruby details. Not worn very often but always welcome.
 
Welcome indeed! Thank you for the information re the butterfly brooch, Gill. It's lovely.

Ah! HM looks lovely in that light green! Thanks Ice! :flowers:
 
HM has really been looking outstanding lately! She is the one who seems to be glowing. Her hair even looks wonderful... fuller or something. lol

My thanks, as well, Ice.
 

:previous:I was just coming to comment on this picture... when I saw the comments above about how beautiful HM looks... My first thought when seeing this picture today was "Gosh I wish I could have skin that looks as incredible as HM's at 37 let alone at 83 almost 84!!" :flowers::flowers:
 
It's a pleasure, as always :flowers:

The Queen and Prince Philip had a full programme in Devon today.

Besides the visit to the Wyvern Barracks that were hosting the Devon
Cadet 150 celebrations to mark 150 years of the Cadet movement,
they also visited Wrigley Company Limited, St. Loye's Foundation and
had lunch at Dartington Hall.

Here's the zimbio gallery.
 
How wonderful!
