Through Royal Eyes

What do you suppose the view from royal eyes is like? Do they experience constant camera flashes by strangers. When they travel in a car, are there always people in other cars looking at them? Are they constantly being pointed to and spoken about? What else...

Lastly, do you think you could handle these constant experiences?

Yes, I think many people GIVE a lot to become what they have become without any effort--famous.:)

Well, I don't want to sound big headed here but I recently did a job for a holiday company and I think I saw the world through Royal eyes. They had me walking around London dressed in a huge Lady Mayoress's outfit. It was bright red with gold braid all over it and was corseted at the top and then had a huge cupcake bottom. The hat was tricorn and had these vast white feathers coming out of it. From the moment I was dropped off outside the Houses of Parliament I knew it was a mistake. I was mobbed, asked every 2 minutes for a photograph in the boiling heat. Then on the second day, they drove me around London (Buckingham Palace. Big Ben etc etc) in a rickshaw and I had to wave at passers by. I really did feel like a Queen (no pun intended) and it was absolutely boiling hot. I just thought of the poor Queen being snapped all the time, asked for photographs and that endless waving. Mine was only for two days but I really sympathised with the Queen on Garter Day.
