Business As Usual at Buckingham Palace
The BBC has just reported that, contrary to earlier claims, the Queen will not be moving from Buckingham Palace to Windsor Castle after her 80th birthday. Nor will she be cutting down on her duties.
The BBC’s Royal correspondent confirmed this in a report on a lunch at the Palace being held for dozens of people born on the same day, April 21, 1926, as the Queen herself.
In the same package, the BBC interviewed Margaret Rhodes, the Queen’s cousin and a close friend, who stated categorically that the Queen would work for as long as she is able, and will not abdicate in anyone’s favour.
Your Majesty, YOU GO MA AM!!

John, Thats american slang for keep on going i,m sorry if it confused you. I sincerely hope the Queen not only lives longer than her mother but still has all her faculties with her to continue reigning as she is today.

Yes, I picked up on the slang, Trudie, and knew what you meant. Too many American movies, I guess
