I think there was a poll on here along the lines of the greatest royal King/Queen ..to my mind the present Queen is up there ...60yrs of keeping her gob shut, not many days off, turning up rain or shine, never called in sick, had to meet 12 different PM's most of them idiots... of course she has lived a privilaged life but she's been much better than Victoria who buggerd off to the Isle of White sulking for 25 years.
