Queen doesn't die for a very long time !!
Well done Lizzie.
It's bloody weird that your achievement in this instance is based on not keeling over whilst her elder son has to hang around waiting for her to do.
To be fair, she seems to have done a decent job of what she's asked to do and her greatest achiement being that we avoid voting in a currently popular person who over the years would have been Thatch, B.Liar, Vince Cable, Jeremy Clarkson, Alex Ferguson, Bobby Charlton, Richard Branson ...

Not advocating mass-murder as an entirely positive experience, of course, but it had its moments.

Particularly liking how the beeb are listing the things she's done being the first monarch to do so. For example she was the first monarch to send an email, back in 1976.
Well yeah. Henry the fooking 8th was hardly likely to be the first to send one 450 years before they were even invented was he now?

Really the list is quite endless.
Re: Queen doesn't die for a very long time !!
never sitting on the throne for over 67yrs (she clearly needs a laxative)
the REAL achievement was putting up with being married to Philip for over 67yrs!
also - that's a very chunky-looking laptop!

Do you think she might declare now or do you think she'll stick a few on for the chase?

I like her.. There I said it.
I like the history and tradition of Monarchy and I think the current 'lot' do a pretty good job of representing the country and commonwealth
