Queen of United Kingdom (as well as Canada, Australia, and other Commonwealth realms) (Photo credit: Wikipedia)

There has not been a Diamond Jubilee since 1897 when Queen Victoria reigned.  Queen Elizabeth the II is not going to abdicate. She’s still pretty healthy and vibrant for her age.    After all, she will be the last Queen for a long while too.  She got the Title because her father did not have any Sons.  Males beat out females in orders of the Throne.  But she is beloved.  They say there is a real private, quiet charisma about her.  It has to be.  She’s always been as unassuming as powdered sugar to me.  I see her sometimes and I don’t  see her, but at the same time, she is undeniably a significant person and after everything else, a strong woman!  She has ruled England for 60 years!  And it’s not such a bad place to rule, but I’m sure her work is strongly cut out for her, even now.  I’m not going to stop until I see Africa and England.  

The next possible Queens would be Sarah Ferguson’s daughters Beatrice and Eugenia  is it?  See they have no brothers and, their father is Prince Andrew (I’m tired already) which puts them in the blood line.  I did a piece about the order of the Monarchy and got lost even when I found things out last year.  It’s mind-boggling to me but the point is that you can be bumped out of these major titles  by births and age  and sex when it comes to the Throne.  Flat out.  Now there is no one to stand in her son, Prince Charles, the Prince of Wales way.  His brother Andrew is younger.  And  Prince William is Heir to the Throne if Prince Charles ever gets there and then abdicates. William is Prince Charles son.   Prince Charles is far older now than his mother was when she ascended the Throne.  She was in her 20s.  He’s in his late 50s!  But if he does reign as King and abdicates or passes it on, Prince William will be the King since he’s well, again the PRINCE’S SON!!  This puts him  over his Uncle Prince Andrew even because he’s the son.  You must assume he will out live his Uncle.  Whoa there!  Royalty has to be a real Science.  It has to be.  Many of us don’t even know all of our cousin’s uncle’s brother’s wives names on the father’s side!!!  Let alone the order of anything.  So the  next King would be Prince Charles and his wife Camille will never be a Queen.  Those choose very nice titles for the wives of Kings. In their Monarchy it’s about the blood line of the King and Queen.  For example Queen Elizabeth’s husband is Prince Phillip, who could never have been a King.  He is not a part of the original blood line, he’s the husband.    Are you confused  yet?  I think those days when in High School we had those stupid Proms with the Kings and the Queens (of what!?)  And of course, we little girls always grew up reading something that started with “In a Kingdom far away……..”  These stories usually featured a King and a Queen…..again of what?!  In this case A Kingdom Far Away…..

The Diamond Jubilee will be filled with beautiful activities, entertainment by the likes of Elton John, Paul McCartney, and Stevie Wonder is to appear.  Oh, I love it.  And of course Commoners are invited which includes all kinds of working classes of people and hats will prevail.  I love the way the British can be so daring with their hats.  Ostentatious is an understatement.  Those hats at Prince William’s wedding had a life of their own.  But I think it’s cool.  It’s unique and I am sure of the Chicago Church-going, bible-totin’ women  who try to outdo each other with hats at Church would wear the Palace down with their creations!  They would fit in beautifully and in their little Southern way would probably ask the British women who their hat-makers were!  The British are such a polite and posed people.  The other Commonwealths under the rule of the Queen such as Canada, Balise, the Bahamas, etc. will also celebrate.  There will be Anti-Monarchy Activism going on but that’s not viewed as a problem.  The British are if nothing else, quite moderate.

I wish that Princess Diana had lived to see it all.  She had to be the sweetest Princess that ever lived and I think she did a fine job in having two sons for the Prince.  I saw her at a distance when she visited a close-by hospital by the Hospital for which I worked.   She looked surreal in that bluish green suit, that beautiful hair walking past a flower garden and stooping down a little to shake some shorter women’s hands.  I read later that day that she asked if the staff of the Hospital received counseling for all the trauma victims they witnessed.  Wasn’t that thoughtful?   And like she did in New York, she held the babies infected with the AIDS virus in her arms.  The sign of compassion in a woman of such stature awed me and made me respect her.  But actually when I saw her when she first became engaged to the Prince wearing a red wool pantsuit convinced me this lady had character.  How cute was that? But I saw her in person, at that distance, two years before her untimely death and we honestly grieved on her passing.  Diana, in her own way changed things in the Palace, during her reign as Princess and in her death.

Her husband was revealed as only a man who did what he had to do but was in love with a surprisingly different kind of woman (Camille Bowles) and as a result even the Queen has seemed to open up more.  I know the rules of the Palace are strict but what about nature taking its course and having no forced marriages?  What’s more Prince William who is remarkably similar to his mother, has married a woman because he found her, was attracted to her and he fell in love with her, just as it was supposed to happen.  Honestly, I think they love each other.  So this Jubilee seems to represent more than just her 60th year of Reigning but a little change in the Royal Palace.  After all Prince William and Prince Harry said that they wanted to see a change.  So do we!

It’s all set to be the centrepiece of the long awaited, by some, Queen’s Jubilee celebrations. A flotilla of boats will sail down the Thames carrying the Queen, her family and guests. It’s being seen as a rebirth of the Thames, restoring it as a vital focus of life in the capital.

But who better to be there, showing off all her marvelous assets, representing proud, giggling Britannia – than Hot Ass Pippa. The only person in the UK who has a website dedicated to her nearly Royal ass. That’s the point of course, she is the sister of a future Queen and in these royalty obsessed days – she must be there.

But how will she present herself, that is the question. “Whether tis nobler for her to topless in this sea of designer gear, or proudly wear her Juicy trackies,” as Shakespeare would definitely have put it. Or go for the fully Monty, Lady Godiva style?

As you can see from the video something happens to Pippa when she gets near water. Off comes the top, out comes the dancer, and she’s away in her own world. A nearly Royal strip – what a show to set off the celebrations and seal her position as HRT, Her Royal Tottyness.

Now that really would give chill-axing Dave Cameron something to text about. LOL indeed! His fat thumbs will be working overtime, he won’t even have time to worry about his bald spot showing.

The Queen might not be amused but husband Phil would be over the moon. After all he’s had a lot to put up with, being dragged to the four corners of the UK and confronted by exactly the same sight everywhere he goes. A sea of flags and mass hysteria.

The Governor of the Bank of England sits in the corner with his abacus, working out how much the extended weekend is costing the nation. George Osborne will be working it into his next hard luck story, and only DVD Dave seems to be enjoying himself. Until he thinks about his appearance at the Leveson Inquiry.

Will he spare a thought for his former best friend, he who shall not be mentioned, Andy Coulson. Will he be banged up in Barlinnie Prison Glasgow with all the English hating Scottish hard nuts? Perish the thought.

Click the video to see the sights you might be lucky enough to see as the Royal barge sails serenely down the Thames. You’ll never see the like again . . . Will she be arrested?

Christian Communities around the world celebrate Easter, as well as the British royal family. Like the Easter tradition in general, they are also prepared chocolate eggs. So special this chocolate, it is said the Queen of England did not want to-to!

Life member of the British Empireis always exciting to be highlighted. Luxury has become part of their daily lives.

Problem was no Easter eggs be arbitrary. In addition to large-sized, egg-shaped chocolates are also made of materials of very high quality.

Based on the news reported by the Daily Mail, every year the British royal order a chocolate egg weighs almost 2 kg. This sizeis large enough so that it can beshared by all members of the kingdom.

Inside are small gifts.For this time, there is a crown-shaped chocolate ganache-filled chocolate bonbon colorful candy,chocolate bars and mini pictorial symbol of the British flag. Prestat, the chocolate manufacturer, using 3 types of the best cocoa beans from Africa, from Sao Thome, Tanzania, and Ghana.

Chocolate dough is mixed in the old pitcher who has lived for centuries. The pitcher had only worn on important occasions such as birthdays.

Now, it was only used once a year to make a chocolate Easter egg for the royal family .. The manufacturing process takes 4 hours more.

Once finished, brown eggs tied with pink ribbon and put in a large box designed by artists. In addition to eggs, Easter bunnies are also identical.

Prestat not miss Tilly presents, chocolate bunny picture is filled with hazel nut praline. Made of marzipan carrots was always faithful to accompany the rabbit.

Prestat chocolate egg is always kept up to Easter Sunday arrived. Chocolate will be delivered immediately, so that the Queen of England and the family can be opened together at Windsor Castle when the time comes.

Nick Crean,the owner of Prestat, feel very proud to be asked to make chocolate eggs to Queen Elizabeth II. According to the story of Nick, the Queen really like dark chocolate wafer manufactured from North London.

“The Queen will provide acheaper chocolate to the guests, so she could eat chocolate than our own,” said Nick.

Prestat Sales at the top at the moment ofthe Royal Wedding. The company is exporting dozens of boxes of chocolate-themed Britain to the United States. Previously, Nick send chocolate gifts to the Queen.

“We sent a letter from the palace. He said, the Queen immediately disappeared upstairs and not down again after receiving the chocolate, “says Nick.

It’s been a long time since the last “Wallace and Gromit” movie. But whilst we wait for another one we have a newish idea (The film was based on the book of the same name) and set of characters brought to you by the thoroughly British Aardman Animatons

The plot of this movie is the Pirate Captain “Hugh Grant” determined to become the Pirate of the year, finds he has a chance of getting the title. This is thanks to a chance encounter with Charles Darwin (David Tennant) who notices that the Pirate Captains parrot really is a Dodo. From this point on the plot goes a bit more crazy involving a plot with Queen Victoria ( Imelda Staunton)and a tough moral discussion.

Like most stuff from the world of Aardman Animations we have a rich plot with plenty of jokes to keep both adults and kids amused in equal measure. The plot is fun, though it makes me wonder that the original writer Gideon Defoe must really hate the Royal Family portraying Queen Victoria as an out and out Villain. It also felt a bit odd having Charles Darwin in the movie it did seem rather wrong portraying him as a tad villainous as well. In my view it would have been better to have a similar character that have different names thereby not having this odd quagmire. The time period also seemed a bit odd having pirates going around whilst Queen Victoria was on the throne did seem a tad mid mashed, I do not recall hearing of any pirates in those times.

However despite these annoying cinematic niggles this film is a lot of fun sure it’s not a “Wallace and Gromit” movie. Its something different and fresh that is well worth watching. With a stellar vocal cast great animation and a decent script this will provably be the best kids film that adults can enjoy equally as well this year. I do also have to say look out for the Mr. Bobo the man-panzee ironically he may not have been voiced by anyone famous, but he was one of the best characters of the movie.
I give it a pieces of 8 out of 10

Bohemian Rhapsody (Photo credit: Wikipedia)

!
The song was recorded and went haywire on the Internet, and until today have thousands of views. Robert performs the song perfectly up until the end, with hand gestures like headbanging and ear drumming included.

He makes it thorough almost the entire song before what appears to be an RCMP officer tells the man to calm down.

“I can’t. . . . Cuz nothing really matters,” he responds in the video. “Anyone can see. Nothing really matters . . . even the RCMP!”   After pleading his case, he decides to belt out his emotions… through the music of Queen.

Bronze

This one is probably the hardest to remember, not only because it was a good long time ago – but also because it didn’t last very long, in terms of event. It took me a year to do both walks on Adventurous Training with my Combined Cadet Force because, at that age, i wasn’t really into it that much. The Skill, Service and Physical I found that i could just sign off easily because i do plenty of that anyway! I distinctly remember getting lost in the mist in the middle of the Lake District though!

Silver

Well, there is much more to write about this one! Sadly, I found myself in a similar situation as i was on bronze – Simply signing off which ever activity and sport i felt like after the alloted time after i started the award. The Walks were so much better though. Harder – but all the more fun! I shall never forget a member of our group leading us down the wrong side of Scarfell Pike (Of all places!) It was after that moment that I broke the news that I got branded the group map reader from then, and ever since.

Gold

Gold was amazing. No doubt about it. I was eagar to finish it! Couldn’t wait. It’s looked on as a fantastic achievement. Only 3% of all participants in the Duke Of Edinburgh Scheme in 2010/11 gained a gold award.

My Walks were hard. But i Loved every minute of them. The second day was always the worst, and on my qualifying, the last day too – due to the fact we could see our finish point from 11 in the morning until we got there, 6 hours later!

It’s taken me just over a year to finish my gold award- Less than my bronze award!

I totally reccommend doing the Duke Of Edinburgh Award Scheme to all who can! You feel great, get a fantastic achievement for all your CV’s and its enjoyable too!

With all the Jubilee celebrations in the news at the moment, I thought I’d dedicate a post to the Queen and her style.

 On 6th February 1952, Princess Elizabeth came to the throne, and was crowned a year later on 2nd June 1953.

  The Royal family will be visiting all Commonwealth Realms this year as part of the celebrations, as well as some Commonwealth countries (I love the way Prince Harry ‘gets’ Jamaica and the Bahamas!)  During the Queen’s Silver Jubilee, she visited Melbourne, Australia as part of Jubilee celebrations with her husband and there’s some brief footage of it here.  It seems 1977 was a bad year for hats, and even the reporter has a dig at them at the races.   Queen’s Silver Jubilee   In 1947, the Queen married the Duke of Edinburgh and famously saved her ration cards in order to pay for the materials.  Instead of an elaborately adorned dress, dripping with diamonds, the Queen wore a silk gown embroidered with flowers (and some pearls granted), a dress which was symbolic of the post-war British austerity measures.   The Queen is also known for her more down-to-earth fashion, and when walking the dogs or when in-residence in the country she will opt for typical British country gear.

Queen Elizabeth’s Diamond Jubilee will take place on the 5th of June 2012. It will mark her sixty years on England’s throne. People cashed in on the marriage of Kate and William in 2011 and so they will for Queen Elizabeth. We Brits know how to celebrate a royal event in style. Shops are already stocked up with souvenirs in anticipation of the big day. I have chosen some of the top most entertaining gifts for you to enjoy.

Britain’s Gone Bananas! 10 of the most Extraordinary Tributes to Kate and William

the goverment is a very tightly sealed club in which powerfull indeviduals fight for the right to lead the great nation out of its great problems right?

i highly doubt that one ,,

we are voting for a select few “party candidates”  who seam to come out of nowere with strange backgrounds, and with no real knowledge of who they are, and we as a society vote them into power! doesent this all seem a little strange to anyone else but me?

we follow their rules , and obide by their laws at all costs or we are punished, we are frown into jail and labeld a convict, when many times people were only demonstrating their right to protest against something that is wrong. the goverment has the nation wrapped round its finger, as it grows further and further into bankrupsy we as citizens pay more and more tax to fund their debts to the other nations who strangle the people for their currency.

change is needed, and needed soon

soon the pound will be worthless and people will starve and perish for the mistakes of the so called goverment that we so badly trust, they have got the world so distracted by going to work, paying bills, providing for the family, so that we dont see the big picture. that the goverment doesent want us to be free, no not at all.
