Grumpy old sod. There's truly no need to act like a child, walk off and sulk.

HM looked loevely at the re-opening of the RI. The colours were just right for the time of year, and worked very well with HMs skin tones

It is quite interesting just how down-to-earth the Queen and her family are when in private, but I'm not sure I like the fact Cherie is basically using anything and anyone to promote her tell-all book. Some things should remain private, I believe.

I love the Queen when she goes to the races. She is always herself and looks so happy to be there. That is something she really thoroughly enjoys.
