Tells you who was invited and what they served. Couldn't understand what most of the food was. 1945 port and 1912 champaign. In St. George's Hall, which was built in the 14th century under Edward III. Very long dinner table.

President Trump doesn’t drink alcohol, so he’ll have Diet Coke or water.

Visited Windsor Castle on a day tour in early May 2005, but because the Queen was in residence at the time, you couldn’t view the State Apartments, thus we never got to see St. George’s Hall. Had to settle for postcards and Guidebook, and the photos I took of the rest of the castle and grounds. Visited St. George’s Chapel, but they didn’t allow photos inside there either.

For Trump the drinks are a moot point. He isn’t now and has never been a drinker. He had a brother who was alcoholic and Donald decided not to go down that road.

He’s probably there to decide whether or not he wants to buy Windsor Castle.

Catherine looked fabulous. Hard to believe she battled cancer. May still be . Every inch regal as the queen consort to be

King looks ticked off, probaby because DJT and Kate both look great.
Upstaged!

I think Charles is feeble and not in much better condition than Biden.

We know Prince Andrew wasn’t at the table.
They reserved him a place at the stables to eat with the polo ponies.

King has cancer...
What’s with all the to-do...
England is being overtaken by their immigrants...and the royalty is acting out a representation of their old power..
Maybe they’re working on a commoner rebellion....
