I think the Queen looks lovely in that shade of blue and very nice brooch which I just read she wore on her honeymoon.

Eaumyword · 20/11/2020 06:36

Love that photo and the card!

banivani · 20/11/2020 06:55

A homemade card - will she be the type to complain that it’s not bought in a shop I wonder #thingsilearnedabouttheenglishonmumsnet

tions · 20/11/2020 07:18

It is a very neat card as well. Wish my kids would learn to colour inside the lines.

Maireas · 20/11/2020 07:32

Here's my guess - Kate's children will be encouraged to be very neat! Wink

Lovely photo but I bet Kate finished the colouring in Smile

And the nanny came up with the concept. This sounds snarky but it isn’t meant to be. I am full of admiration and a teensy bit envious.

MadameMiggeldy · 20/11/2020 09:26

banivani 😂😂😂

My first uncharitable thought was that Mr Tumble had a hand in the concept

LadyEloise · 20/11/2020 10:07

Lovely photo.
Does anyone else think the Queen looks different ?
I can't put my finger on it - is it her hair ? Her make up ?

Horsemad · 20/11/2020 10:16

Yeah @LadyEloise, I thought the same but couldn't decide what it was. 🤔

I did think her face looked different - thinner maybe?

frugalkitty · 20/11/2020 10:58

Lovely photo and card. Given how much the school fees are for the Cambridge children, I should think they can colour in between the lines, what are they paying for otherwise??? Grin

Eaumyword · 20/11/2020 13:00

Grin Louis looks like a determined little colour-inner!!

TracyBeakerSoYeah · 20/11/2020 13:33

I'm wondering if HMQ has had a toner or something through her hair as it does look very sparkling but beautiful.
Plus the pale lavender blue colour is perfect on her really enhances her hair, eyes & skin tone.
Oh so we don't leave Philip out, he looks great too!

Eaumyword · 20/11/2020 14:16

Love how HMQ embraces colour.
I'm on episode 2 of S4 of The Crown. Omg it's amazing. The actress playing Diana is wonderful.

Laiste · 20/11/2020 17:15

Today i watched ep.1 of series 1 of The Crown!

Was good. Looking forward to the rest.
Bit concerned that it's going to be another massive time eater up'er when i'm meant to be doing more constructive things though like masterchef and bakeoff are at the mo

Maireas · 20/11/2020 17:27

I loved series 1 - I tried not to binge watch it!

Lovely picture I said a while ago that the queen has lost weight. She is paler than usual cannot get outdoors as much this year I suspect.

keiratwiceknightly · 20/11/2020 19:30

It's a very filtered pic I think which has added some peculiar highlights. Prob to flatter the v old Prince P after mean headlines about him looking dug up.

LadyEloise · 20/11/2020 19:37

This sounds a bit daft but she just doesn't look like herself.
It may be, as keiratwiceknightly, says, filters.

AppleKatie · 20/11/2020 19:44

It wouldn’t be surprising if due to advanced age coupled with reduced activity during the pandemic she had lost muscle mass over the course of this year. Sad

MadameMiggeldy · 20/11/2020 22:09

Wondering if the Scandis are all having a Netflix party watch of The Crown

TracyBeakerSoYeah · 20/11/2020 23:36

Ooh Madame 😂😂😂

Laiste · 21/11/2020 14:41

The pic of the queen and P, it looks like a painting. Definitely some sort of filter on it. The colours are almost in blocks like a painting by numbers pic.

TracyBeakerSoYeah · 21/11/2020 18:34

I know what you mean Laiste it does look a bit like one of those paintings that at first glance looks like a photo
Great photo though.

MadameMiggeldy · 21/11/2020 19:35

Sophie volunteering at a food bank. A royal look I could pull off.
