D'you know, Liz, my mate in Wiltshire said virtually the same as you about HMQ. She did also notice however that the Princess Royal managed to crack a smile.

I'm off to church too very shortly. I spent most of yesterday semi-comatose in an armchair. Technically I have recovered. It's my daughter's 19th birthday today and we are very foolishly leaving the house to her and her student friends while Ian and I go off overnight to his company bash this afternoon. How will I relax in the sauna at the country club knowing that lot are on the loose?

Do I care?
