OH my goodness, HM looks so thin, she has really lost weight for her clothes just hang on her.  It shocked me to see her like that, she always was so robust and full of energy......I sure hope someone in the family is keeping a very close eye on her at this age for weight loss can be stressful and damaging, as I well know, just ask my doc as I have lost almost 15 pounds is 6 weeks and he wants answers.....good luck Doc...

A message of condolence from Her Majesty The Queen on the passing of Archbishop Desmond Tutu
Published 26 December 2021
I am joined by the whole Royal Family in being deeply saddened by the news of the death of Archbishop Desmond Tutu, a man who tirelessly championed human rights in South Africa and across the world.

"I remember with fondness my meetings with him and his great warmth and humour.

"Archbishop Tutu's loss will be felt by the people of South Africa, and by so many people in Great Britain, Northern Ireland and across the Commonwealth, where he was held in such high affection and esteem.

Totally ^

Especially because of this fact.
Queen Mum, Queen Mary & Queen Alexandra were all made members 'after' their husband's accession.

HRH Duchess of Cornwall got it before Charles accession.

Yeah, I was reading about that.  Makes this even more interesting.  Quite the vote of confidence by QE towards Cams.  Making it easier for the public to accept Cams as Queen Consort? Personally , I have never had an issue with Queen Cams.  But I realize that many do.   But maybe a change of heart knowing that QE approves?

Camilla is the hidden jewel among all the gems HM has......she has not put one foot wrong and her devotion to furbabies and domestic violence is to me the most honorable charities she could have.  She has put a huge smile on Charles face and made him more approachable and secure within himself I believe.  What an honor, she well deserves it!

United Kingdom government official
I?m delighted that Her Majesty The Queen has given permission for a special medal be awarded to all those who deployed to Kabul in August last year, honouring the heroism of those who carried out the biggest emergency evacuation for decades and rescuing 15,000 people.



600 medals

Thrilled that those involved in the evacuation are going to be recognized for their efforts and bravery during a terrible episode in Afghanistan's 21st century history.
