Queen had several of those dogs that ran around the palace whereevr she went. I had read there were staff that had to clean up their droppings pretty often. But now they know she’s gone ....dogs sense that.

FWIW

Camilla's nephew is married to Steve Winwood daughter.
He's a conservative.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Camilla,_Queen_consort_of_the_United_Kingdom

She has a younger sister, Annabel Elliot, and had a younger brother, Mark Shand.[

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Annabel_Elliot

has three children: Ben (the current Co-Chairman of the Conservative Party, born 1975), Alice (born 1977) and Catherine (born 1981).[6]

below says he just resigned on 9-5.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ben_Elliot

Benjamin William Elliot (born 11 August 1975) is a British businessman and fund-raiser for the Conservative Party who served as Co-Chairman of the Conservative Party from July 2019 alongside James Cleverly (2019–2020), Amanda Milling (2020–2021), Oliver Dowden (2021–2022), and Andrew Stephenson (2022) before resigning on 5 September 2022.

Personal life[edit]
Elliot married Mary-Clare Winwood, US-born daughter of the musician Steve Winwood, in Gloucestershire in 2011.[3] They have two sons and live in West London.[3] Elliot is a member of 5 Hertford Street, a private members’ club in Mayfair, London.[26]

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/5_Hertford_Street

5 Hertford Street (5HS) is a private members’ club in Mayfair, London, which was described in 2017 as London's most secretive club. Is owned by the English businessman Robin Birley.

Birley, who has been described as “a committed Leaver”, “ushered into membership” a number of politicians; political figures that have been associated with the club include Priti Patel, Nigel Farage, Michael Gove, David Cameron, Arron Banks[4] and Liz Truss.[5] It is located on the corner of Shepherd Market and has its own cigar shop and a downstairs nightclub, Loulou’s.[6]

The club is known to have been frequented by figures including Harry Styles, Margot Robbie, Mick Jagger, Lupita Nyong’o, George and Amal Clooney, Leonardo DiCaprio, the Prince of Wales and Princess Eugenie.

Those supporting Brexit are sometimes referred to as “Leavers”.[54][55]

Strange group of people.

Maybe Harry wasn’t included and had a hissy fit so William couldn’t go either? /s

Yes I believe he did get Cornwall title. It will be interesting to see how they handle Harry and wife. I expect the family to cater to their demands..

Queen Elizabeth II lived for 35,204 days: 4/21/1926 – 9/8/2022.

She died at age 96.3853. That's 98.176% of 98.176 years old.

We should all live so long, in good health.
