Mickey Rooney kisses the Queen's hand - another faux pas
Mickey also gave Ronald Wilson Reagan a fine salute at the funeral.
It’s not a faux pas for the queen to wear a birthday cake on her head?
Didn’t Mr. Bush tell someone in the royal family back in the day (can’t remember who) that he was the black sheep in his family? They’re quite familiar with his sense of humour. I would guess that the Queen’s visit is entirely about showing support for the USA. I would also guess that she likes Mr. Bush, and finds him to be charming. As do I. :)
Double faux pas: You’re supposed to lower your lips to a woman’s hand, not raise the hand to your lips.
