This specially updated edition, released to mark the passing of the
late and much-missed monarch, is a collection of warm, amusing
recollections from the royal household celebratingĀ the
lighter side of palace life. āWhat do you do?ā a guest inquired
of the Queen at a Buckingham Palace garden party. āI had no idea
what to say,ā the Queen told friends afterwards. As the longest
reigning monarch of this realm, the Queen represented stability,
hope and continuity. We loved her because she was always there,
didnāt make a fuss and was dedicated in her duty even in old age.
But alongside her stoic and sensible exterior, she was also
renowned for a playful and keen sense of humour, as seen when she
delighted audiences all around the world by inviting Paddington
Bear for tea to celebrate her Platinum Jubilee. How exactly did
theĀ Queen reactwhen she found her footman draped in her
jewels? What did she do to amuse herself to while away the hours
spentĀ sitting for her portrait? How did she respond when
faced with a plate full of Mexican food? This characterful,
illustrated book answers these questions and poses many more in its
affectionate celebration of the diverse personalities of the House
of Windsor. Gathered together in this amusing tribute are a
compendium of storiesĀ which provide access to
theĀ unique world of the royals. Ā Ā
