For all we shake our heads in wonder at British politics, they sure know how to throw a dinner party
I am always taken by HRM Elizabeth II. She is 93 and still has a clear voice with strength behind it.
And President Trump... I am so grateful he is our President.

That's a swank affair alright. I hope he gave them something nice for a thank you. Maybe an iPod.

Filled with a collection of his greatest speeches. Wouldn’t that be a hoot.
After dinner they probably will have a quiet evening watching DVD’s with the Prime Minister.

Always like to see our President and First Lady, taller than the dignitaries they visit.
It's the imposing presence of a world leader and a prominent President.

God save the Queen!
"Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible." -- Justice Janice Rogers Brown

The first lady takes my breath away, what a beautiful woman, represents this country with style and grace. I wonder if prince Charles didn't whisper in her ear, "hey,want to be the Queen of England"?

Now that is a dining room
I've been fortunate enough to meet the Queen once on a receiving line, and Prince Philip twice.

But much shorter than the entire company of the guard of honour parading behind the palace....

There is no doubt in my mind that she is one of the hardest-working people on this planet, bar none. Her schedule, even at her advanced age, would flatten a forty-year old so-called high-flyer. And remember that she has been doing all this since 1953.
Her husband is the Honorary Colonel-in-Chief of the part of the Army that I served in for almost 33 years. He has decided, in the last year, to slow down, but is still involved in more business than you can shake a stick at.
I recommend that all detractors of Elizabeth Mountatten-Windsor do some research just to see what she actually does get up to.
And add to that, she also reigns all day.

It's not such a big deal to be taller than a 93-year old lady, but I know what you mean.This message has been edited. Last edited by: tacfoley, June 04, 2019 06:55 AM

God save the Queen, indeed. Her life has been incredible and in many ways incomprehensible. As Tacfoley suggests the Queen probably leads the most dichotomous life in all of history.
