I never really have given much thought to British Royalty, but the more I read about Elizabeth II, she truly is one of the classiest, most polite individuals. What’s even more remarkable is that even though her entire life has been in the public eye, there is hardly a whiff of crassness, pettiness or anger having ever been seen from her.

Somehow I doubt that the Queen actually bakes scones herself, but I might try her recipe.

She certainly doesn’t show the craziness of Anne or George III.

We were indeed lucky to have her father rather than David who became Duke of Winsor. Sending the Baltimore Tramp over to visit him ended up being a very good thing for Britain.

Her grandsons seem to be like her. Her oldest son, not so much.
