Quite sad for her she didn’t even get a line in the Court Circular to record her marriage.

I’m sorry this is a rather mass generalisation. I work with lots of young people on a regular basis. Many of them have a good understanding of the Monarchy and lot of respect for The Queen. I don’t want to generalise and I’d say there are a lot of young people who probably don’t have much...

It has been reported that a “mini” Queen’s Birthday Parade will be held in the forecourt of Windsor Castle on the occasion of Her Majesty’s Official Birthday.

His Royal Highness was carrying out official engagements in Greece. Which is odd given Lady Gabriella is his niece and they all seem to get on well as the Kent family.

I wonder if at a garden party like this where they represent The Queen are the treated as she would be! Guess they are still figuring out how to do these ‘new’ types of event without The Queen!

Also very strange that The Prince of Wales, Duchess of Cornwall and The Princess Royal get a full verse of the National Anthem. Surely they are only entitled to the first six bars?

The lions are quite impressive - there was such a crowd of people queuing to see the vault I couldn’t get them in my shot!

The Grand Duke Jean’s vault in the crypt of the Cathedral

I’ve spent today in Luxembourg - really quite moving to see how many shop display windows and around the city In general pay tribute to His late Royal Highness

Not fussed on the name, at all, or the lack of title use.

A Garter Mantle, Warrant and Statutes of the Order of the Garter on display at the Royal Palace in Stockholm. I was there a few weeks ago. They had the most superb exhibition of Orders and Decorations, well worth a visit!

I'm sorry to ask but what happened in 2013? As far as I'm aware The Queen has remained fully active. She does her red boxes every day, conducts audiences with the PM and others, carries out an extensive diary of engagements. Ok she no longer does overseas travel but the woman is 92 years of...

It was present at the Thistle Service and the name was in the Order of Service Booklet. However the name was also published in the Court Circular.

The page yesterday was the Hon Augustus Stanhope Nephew of the Countess of Snowdon

A few of my own photos from today -
