You sure have a lot of respect for yourself ,,

[durasell]

You wouldn't’t say that if you saw her last weekend doing tequila shooters and slurring “Disraeli, I’ll tell ya ‘bout ole Dizzy. Ole sumbitch...”

[Tax-chick]

LOL! Took me a minute to get that :-). The chief obviously put some work into his outfit, too.

[toddlintown]

Ask her why her son’s a Tamponian nitwit.

[AppyPappy]

I wonder if the LaRouche people will show up.

[britemp]

‘I’m sure that hat cost the British tax payers plenty.’

She’s an absolute bargain compared to a president - 8 million quid a year! Couldn’t run Air Force One for a week with that! :)

[Tax-chick]

I do have a big purse this year, and it’s got a bunch of Hot Wheels cars in it for Emphasis.

Since I can’t afford a Royal Hat, I’ll have to wear my all-purpose chip straw with the big white peony on the back.

[trumandogz]

I missed Miss Manners but I still want to know what is in the big hat.

Is it a bird, a bicycle or perhaps even a bomb!

I hope she was properly screened at airport security where they search all the other 80 year old ladies.

[Tax-chick]

I sing the British drinking song the tune was stolen from

Is that actually a currently popular song, to which folks would know the words, as everyone in the U.S. knows "My Country, 'tis of Thee"?

[britemp]

‘Isn’t there a movement in England to do just that?’

Don’t hold your breath!

[rabidralph]

Annie Leibovitz photographed the queen in March.

[Xenalyte]

Hot Wheels! What a great idea. My mother just used to huck Weebles at us.

[Xenalyte]

Wow. What a gorgeous photo.

[Tax-chick]

I hope she was properly screened at airport security where they search all the other 80 year old ladies.

My mother, who's a few years younger than the Queen, would agree with you!

Maybe she has her iPod in the hat. There was an interesting thread a few years back, speculating on what she carries in her big purse!

[britemp]

‘She is nothing but a Welfare Queen living on the dole of the British Tax Payer.’

LOL! I bet she pays a lot more tax than you do. . . . .

[trumandogz]

Now you have done it!

You have started all the Annie Leibovitz and Queen Elizabeth rumors!

Nice Photograph.

[Tax-chick]

Weebles are back! I heard my 5-year-old singing about them recently.

And you’re right, that’s a great photo. The lighting is perfect.

[durasell]

Most of her income is tax exempt.

[billbears]

She is nothing but a Welfare Queen living on the dole of the British Tax Payer

LOL, except the Windsor family does have their own money. But don't let that get in your way of insulting a honorable and admirable woman.

Compared to the idiots we have as leaders, I'd half rather be British (well except for having 'New' Labour as the controlling party in Parliament)
