He was. He is not the president any more for 2-3 years, I think. Moreover, he is a very good playwriter.

And thank you as well for that, J :) I had to smile about your little discussion about Mr Havel :) He was president from 1989 till 2003, at first of Czechoslovakia and later of the Czech Republic.

A very nice pic from 1988:

Here are several pics I have not seen here before.
My favourite pics of these are the one with Diana and the one with the blue dress - what great colours!

Thanks for all the amazing pictures. Queen Sofia is so elegant!
A quick question: Does anybody have any pics of her when she was a little girl? I've seen the ones from photo agencies such as 'corbis', but wondered if you had any old books or magazines with pictures in!

I hope somebody will be kind enough to help!
Sofia

Queen Sofia was profiled at the November 2004 newsletter, and there are some pictures of her as a little girl there

Queen Sofia could be wearing sport clothes and she'll still look wonderful. She is naturally elegant.
