I get mine exclusively at Wal-Mart. Why should it be any different for the Queen? ;)

Walmart has some great bras.

You would think she would have known better, given the story of Marion Crawford, governess to Elizabeth and Margaret.

Crawford wrote about it - not damning in the slightest, if anything, gushing. But that sort of thing is just not done.

Back in the 1950’s my school guidance counselor never told me this was a possible career choice.

“I’ve never had a bra fitter. I buy em off the rack.”

So is it a nice rack?

She appeared saggy and dejected; downcast.

Given where this Royal Family is headed I suspect the next generation won’t be wearing bras anyway.

Do the British “royals” (hack, spit) still have a “Groom of the Stool” to wipe their inbred bums? It used to be an important job.

The first rule of the Queen's bra-fitting is: You do not talk about the Queen's bra-fitting.

While reading Winston Churchill's biography of the Duke of Marlborough, I was surprised that Marlborough and other high nobles held various positions like "gentleman of the bedchamber". It seemed odd to me that such important people would be in charge of making sure the King put on his pajamas correctly and was tucked into bed. But this was based on the idea that only titled nobility could be trusted to keep the King's secrets and not gossip about what they saw.

I'm glad the Queen sacked that old gossip.

My sock fitter of several decades, Gold Toe, was deeply hurt when I had Carhart fit me some socks a month or two ago. I hope GT is getting over their anguish.

I once saw an interesting episode of that on Worst Jobs hosted by “Baldrick” of Black Adder.
