The concept of the garden party is exactly the same to all the BP garden parties (meet and greet, small talk chit chat walk around), the only difference is the Theme of this one, that's it. But you are making it out as if this is more special and not fluffy.  Meghan will be participating in fluffy events too. Like it or not.

I am curious to why H&M were dispatched by the POW so quickly though? They spent only 30 minutes and bye bye.
I can only imagine the vast amount of prep work that the royal kitchens must be tasked with so that everyone has their tea, scone, fruit etc.. Meghan will have many more years to meet and greet the public at the annual BP garden parties. This was a great "first official engagement" for the new Duchess of Sussex.  :)

Here is video of the PoW/DoC saying good bye to the D/DoSus .

It is always nice to see the BRF being portrayed as a proper family, not the dysfunctional caricature that the tabloids like so much. I thought all four of them were rather sweet to each other...and in that vein I refuse to believe the Debbie Downers who are now telling us it is all for show. I am sure if C,C,H and M were scowling (even in a single frame), some people here would jump on it as proof that they hated each other. However, now that they are smiling and positive...those very same people are telling us that it is nothing but a garden party for show :teehee:

Still wondering what caused and why the uncomfortable situation the public and video of how H&M were dispatched off the premises of the BP Garden Party, first time I see something of the sort, and topped with MM un-royal catwalk.

Meggie might have to learn to change her walk.
Why the short time at BP GardenParty?

Maybe PH was really stung by that bee. Maybe it did not just buzz by and close to him. Maybe he needed to get med assistance for it. Meggie rubbed or held his back as they walked up he steps.

They weren't 'despatched off the premises'. They were at the garden party for about 40 minutes (which they would have known about.) It wasn't their garden party, the couple were present so that Harry could deliver a speech and they could meet and greet a few people and then go. That was the arrangement.

40 minutes is about the length of many Royal engagements, including ones performed by Anne, Kate, William, Sophie etc. On their next engagement they'll probably stay longer and then you can criticise that.

I was not being critical. I did not know the length of time that they stayed.

Event number two: QEII and the BRF attend the Festival of Remembrance at The Royal Albert Hall. 11/9/19

QuoteSat: The Queen, Charles, Camilla, William, Kate, Harry Meghan, Andrew, Sophie, Edward, Anne and @royalfamily

.

Finally Remembrance Day at the Cenotaph. QEII to view from the balcony of the Foreign Office with the PoW etc..performing the actual wreath laying at the Cenotaph. (I'm guessing a similar balcony line up like last year: QEII accompanied by the Duchesses of Cornwall and Cambridge with other family members grouped on the additional balconies.)

BTW if you want a reminder of last year's Centenary of the end of WWI, there are stunning (yes truly stunning) photos from the events around the world last year: Belgium, Australia, UK, etc..) The images on the beaches were among my favorites.

QuoteThe Duke and Duchess of Sussex are teaming up with the Duchess of Cornwall for their first joint engagement as a trio, to mark Remembrance Day. Buckingham Palace has announced that Harry, Meghan and Camilla will visit the 91st Field of Remembrance at Westminster Abbey on Thursday 7 November.

This will be the seventh time Harry has attended the event and the first time for Meghan and Camilla, who is Patron of the Poppy Factory. They will each lay a Cross of Remembrance and the Last Post will sound, followed by a two-minute silence. The royals will then visit the memorial plots for regimental and other associations, meeting veterans from all areas of the Armed Forces who have served in past campaigns and more recent conflicts.

I never miss watching it on UTUBE, as we don't get it streamed live. I also never get through it without tears. So many lives maimed or destroyed through all those wars.

Camilla must be better today, maybe dosed herself up for the weekend's events. All the Royal females in subdued colours, black, dark blue, grey. Everybody looked great tonight, and in good spirits. Loved Meghan's dress, shoes and hair. She looked lovely I thought. Boris turned up with girlfriend I see! A change from electioneering all day.

The Queen's outfit is my favorite. The resemblance between William and his Uncle Edward really shows in the balcony photo

I thought that all members of the BRF looked elegant and appropriate for tonight's event. The focus should be upon the veterans and the active service personnel IMO so the outfits for Remembrance Day events are not my top priority. :)

Extensive photo gallery of veterans, the Cenotaph and the balcony at the Foreign Office. This article from the DM also has excellent photos from the services being held around the UK today including events outside of London.

As expected QEII is flanked by Camilla and Catherine. Sophie, Meghan and Timothy are on another balcony. Unfortunately I have yet to find any photos of the Gloucesters or Kents today. :unsure:

The Queen's tear gave me goosebumps. It's her first tear in many many years. Someone point out a tear in her plus 60 years of reign...I think not. So I find it very significant and I wonder what she was thinking, her sensibilities now.

Kate has several poppies.  I didn't know this particular poppy referenced female codebreakers, although I know her grandmother was a Bletchley Park codebreaker.  Just like the fact or theory of her 3 Legion Poppies referencing the last line of dead male relatives of WWI and WWI that ultimately changed the history of the Lupton's to what we know of the Middleton's (her remembrance visit last year at the War Museum, all male members died, hence the history of her last name. Valerie and her twin sister were the survivors of the family, married and acquired their husband's last name, their brothers died)

It may have been just the chilly and cold weather that made the Queen's eyes water. A couple of years ago Prince Philip looked teary but it turned out he had a coughing fit. (That was the last time he attended the Cenotaph ceremony.) Sometimes when people are very old their eyes are inclined to be watery anyway. She wasn't lifting a hanky to her eyes or looking upset.

Possibly, but the video says otherwise, her eyes got watery, and she wiped it out with her hand, no handkerchief.

Perhaps, since it was only one eye and she kept blinking throughout. It's just that she wiped the tear at a very emotional moment...the music had been playing and stopped, and she was waiting for her son to carry her wreath. It could have been a real tear. She did look more like herself than she did last night. I suppose she isn't going out much at night anymore, but she did not look like herself. But going back to this morning's ceremony, this is such a poignant time, and maybe even more so for her. She knew WWI veterans and no doubt heard so much about how it changed life in GB. And then living through WWII and all subsequent conflicts when she herself represents the entire UK and Commonwealth countries. She will be thinking of all those many, many casualties and no doubt feeling it greatly. Bless her.
