What does the Queen keep in her handbag??

So..the queen always has a handbag with her.

I was just wondering (aloud to OH who was no use at all), what do you think she carries in there?

Mobile phone? - does the Queen have one?? OH thinks she must have, but...really?

Make up/comb etc? - surely she has 'people' to do that for her.

A diary maybe?

What else? I'm thinking about my own bag which has:

purse - does the Queen need to actually pay for anything?
keys - to Windsor castle??
Phone - hmmm..?
Make up - has anyone ever seen her touching up her MU? Or would she really pop to the ladies room to rouge-up?

What else??

There's a button in there, kinda like a car key.. one button tells secret service that she wants to leave, another tells them that shesl feel threatened and a final big red one that tells them that Phil is bing a dick again.. that's the one that's used the most.

A Tamagochi

Apparently she always carries a crisply folded five pound note in there. I remember having this conversation with someone a while ago who genuinely seemed to know and this is the only thing I can remember them telling me.

Seriously though, I think it's probably a prop so she doesn't have to shake hands or do anything awkward.

But I'd love it to be a hip flask.

Racecardriver · 30/08/2018 21:51

A spliff for when she has to deal with the likes of trump or corbyn

hugoagogo · 30/08/2018 21:51

I read somewhere that there is definitely a hanky, but can't remember what else.

AdaColeman · 30/08/2018 21:52

Packet of doggy treats.

Hip flask with scotch whisky

Emergency kit of safety pins and knicker elastic

Invisible ear plugs for the boring speeches

Nicely ironed hankies embroidered with ER

A plastic toy gun, which when the trigger is squeezed fires out a little orange flag that says “bang”

The handbag is to signal to her A de C, on the floor by her feet = all is well, picked up and put on her knee = getting bored, prepare to leave, tucked on her right arm = get me out of here pronto!

Apparently she always carries a crisply folded five pound note in there.

So a picture of herself then? How vain 😁

Dog treats
Phil treats (for it he behaves himself) very old and out of date because he never does

If she's like all the ladies of a similar age in my grandma's nursing home, it'll be a tangerine and a brick sized incontinence pad. Nothing else.

BonnieF · 30/08/2018 22:20

Today’s Racing Post.
A mobile phone with one’s Turf Accountant on speed dial.
Ear plugs, in case one has to attend yet another bloody pop concert. One hates pop concerts.

MissLingoss · 30/08/2018 22:25

I think she's been seen to get her reading glasses out of her handbag, when she has to read a speech.
