The Queen, I think, can always decide that she wants hand down her royal scepter to William and skip over Chuck. If she thinks that Chuckie isnt going to do a good job.

Having read that Prince Charles has a personal servant whose only job is to squeeze toothpaste onto Chuck's toothbrush, I think he's a bit spoiled. (ok, that story is probably not true, but I think it shows that the British dont care all that much for Charles) I'm hoping the Queen lives long enough to hand the throne over to William.

But, since I'm not English, and whatever happens to the British monarchy will probably not affect me, I'm only going to watch with mild interest. I did like studying the monarchy when I was younger, and I did a lot of history reading when I visited England in 2001. If you ever get to go, I really recommend seeing the Tower if you're up to the exertion. Glad I did it in 2001, I'd never make it up into the Tower now. You have to practically climb a rope to get to the upper floors. The stairs are all worn down, and they havent really made the place handicap accessible.

I just wonder if Charles ever looks happy or if that is not allowed for him to.

and as a grand finale...thought y'all may get a giggle out of this collage posted by one of my FB friends today (sorry it came out real small here...hope you can see it?)

Hahaha, cute Cherie, I had to get my mag. glass out, but very funny!!:D

I just added an enlargement ;)

loved it, quite a replica. Wonder if they used the cartoon as reference when making the dresses and head pieces

That is absolutely uncanny!
