She looks marvellous still but it was sad to see her tiny figure walking alone in the procession at St Paul's Cathedral. Prince Philip seems to be much better now and hopefully will soon be back at her side. No wonder he was ill after 4 hours in the cold and rain on that barge!Rowanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13679130612798888266noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6049626897935912366.post-42084101736506519552012-06-05T12:19:42.757-04:002012-06-05T12:19:42.757-04:00I feel so lucky to be alive as she celebrates this...I feel so lucky to be alive as she celebrates this wonderful event!Nanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15547916206007733970noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6049626897935912366.post-90616172082714159082012-06-05T12:19:15.577-04:002012-06-05T12:19:15.577-04:00I haven't heard any updates, other than what W...I haven't heard any updates, other than what William said at the concert.Nanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15547916206007733970noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6049626897935912366.post-35645344683381766202012-06-05T12:16:08.340-04:002012-06-05T12:16:08.340-04:00They are wonders!

For me, the most astonishing thing was that the Queen (86) and Prince Philip (90) never sat down for the whole, long journey, even though splendid velvet thrones had been prepared for them. Amazing!
