The Queen's Flounce

[WendyWeber]

You go girl!

(BP are saying now she didn't, but you can see she did

Oh, they've cut that from what was there earlier.

Try sky

Poor old Queenie. Telling her to take off her tiara because it's "too much" with the Order of the Garter... what an idiotic request. It's supposed to be formal!

But she is such a miserable old trout!

well, I like her, and when I see her on Tuesday, I shall give her a big hug

One is not amused

what you at the palace for LL? have you checked the moon? taken your potion?

Gah, lots of old women are grumpy and irrational.

I am becoming Dame Lapin.

Nah, just a garden party. I doubt we'll get within 50 feet of the family, but I'm looking forward to having a nosy round the grounds.

Greeny, liked your "gah" there, you do that very well...

I love the Queen

Beeb have apologised - apparently the clip looks like she flounced off and the Beeb certainly said she did, but apparently she didn't.

Queenie rocks! I loves her, I do.

Take orf my tiara? One is not about to downsize the bling, dear gel.

According to one report, the footman carrying the train had to scamper to keep up with her - but maybe that's just her normal speed in the palace corridors (does she use Heelies? I think we should be told)

ROFL! what a mental image!

Only she didn't flounce out--the BBC embroidered that part. And if you watch the Youtube excerpt (available via The Guardian) she sounded put out, but not as furious as some have made out.

Storm. In. A.

She was fed up because she had to have her hair specially done for the coronet and had to wear all the robes - and then the photographer asked her to take the coronet off! I think you are entitled to get hacked off when you are 81 and have done the job for 55 years.
