I love the goings on of the Royals and I think Queen E is fabulous, she is what a Queen should be. I admire her enormously. Now, as a contrarian, I thought Diana was a gorgeous creature but not a person I liked,,she was exihibitionistic, immature, self centered and immensely determined to destroy that family. I don't get why women just worship that bulemic needy person and her memory. Charles, I don't like so much. And the old Queen Mother was wonderful.

With all due respect, cajun, I couldn't disagree with you more. Diana was a teenager when she married Charles, and I think quite smitten with him. At first she was unsure of herself. To Charles (and perhaps even the Queen) she was but a brood mare for the throne. Her marriage was a tragedy from the very beginning. However, she eventually became a charming and poised philanthropist in spite of it. Anything she may have done behind the scenes was her desperate way of coping with a very unhappy situation all around. IMHO she meant no harm to the royal family, and was a loving mother to her sons.

Other than that, I'm sure she was a really nice person. :)
