It's great to see the Queen so happy and energetic. And I am so pleased that she is out and about doing everything that she can to connect with her people. Nice to see.

Agreed Empress, and especially nice to see her in my own university library. Sadly I didn't get to see her in real life (training abdominals at the gym seemed more important to me, sadly and shamefully).

Shame on you Marengo!

By the way, loved loved the blue flowers she was carrying. Anyone have any idea what kind they might be?

As posted by Oscar on the Benelux Royals MB:

Quote:

At a Pressconference given by the Blijdorp Zoo dealing with the measures taken to prevent a second escape of Gorilla Bokito, it was revealed the Queen had phoned the Zoo personally to get an update on the situation in the zoo. One might think the Royal Family to symphatize with Bokito , they at least know how it feels to be stared at all the time

Nice of the Queen to phone personally, I read that the gorilla escaped, ran amok and injured people!

Glasses?

The Queen?

I have never seen her with glasses, in a public function.
