It's strange, I used to idolise the Royal Family, and watched all the weddings/funerals etc on TV with enthusiasm. But for some reason I've lost all interest in them and have come to the conclusion that they're an anachronism. I think after Her Maj has gone, the whole thing should be dismantled.
I did watch her speech, but couldn't see the point in it. I got the impression that she was only doing it because her advisers had told her the people expected it.
It's a bit rich (pun intended) for someone ridiculously wealthy who has led a life of endless privilege and luxury to be sitting there 'encouraging' the rest of us. Nah.
