Happy birthday Your Most Royal Highnessness

[Phillip Phlopp]

Yep, Frau Vindsor hits 96 today.

I'm no Royalist but she has been a backdrop to all our lives, maybe an irrelevant backdrop or someone of importance. If she was entered into The Hitchhikers Guide To The Galaxy she would definitely be described as 'harmless'. In the great scheme of things she's done a difficult job very well, not sure about her parenting skills, mind.

So, gawd bless yer ma'am.

Soon be dead (no, really).

Is this the real birthday, or the other one?

[Lisa]

Does it matter?

Does it matter?

You're still mad about the Elizabeth the Second thing, aren't you?
So am I actually.

[Claude Balls]

Does it matter?

Of course - I've no wish to go "cock out" for her Majesty, only to find it's the kid-on birthday, not her actual one.

[Lisa]

I'd rather you didn't do that for any of her birthdays TBH, not at her age. Anyway, it's her birthday, not yours.

I think yesterday was her real birthday. My friend's daughter shares this birthday with her & when the Queen was 90 there was some kind of garden party & some normal people who shared the same birthday went to it, I can't remember how you applied to go but my friend's daughter didn't get picked to go.
