Whistle Stop BS: Mudcatter to meet Queen Elizabeth II (41) RE: BS: Mudcatter to meet Queen Elizabeth II 17 May 02

Being an American, I hesitate to try to instruct anyone on the Queen's English. However, in my experience "consort" when used in this context (as a noun) generally refers to a spouse. Since I doubt you are your mother's spouse, you may want to refrain from referring to yourself this way in the Queen's presence.

I also am happy to note that it is Queen Elizabeth II you will be meeting; certainly preferable to meeting Queen Elizabeth I.

Hope you enjoy your brush with history. -- WS
