Oh?
From NY Times article, above: "The queen, who is 83, is the only living head of state who served in uniform during World War II."
Take it up with the New York Times. LOL
(putting on my snotty British accent) Actually, when one is speaking of “the Queen Mum”, one is speaking of Elizabeth’s mother, whose name was Mary I believe. She is, in fact, dead. At present, there is no Queen Mum, as that title (which I also believe Mary made up upon Elizabeth’s coronation) goes to the mother of the sitting Queen. Got that?
And then, cos I can’t use my snotty British accent without a nod to Dr. Who: “Brilliant!”!
