    I think you and I have different ideas on working. Nothing I have seen shows that she broke sweat , must be where Andrew got it from.

    He be desperate to have another reigning Uk Monarch visit Ireland again before he out of office in 2024. Charles and Camila visiting Ireland every year for many years.

    RIP the queen.

    Tell Harry and Meghan how easy the job was! They were doing a fraction of her workload and had to bail out!
    Andrew too, screwed up mightily.

    She never had a scandal and lived her entire life under scrutiny. Couldn't say the wrong thing and didn't. How many politicians could you say that about.
    Meet and greeting people all the time and always being in good form.
    AND, working until you are ninety-six years of age. And only getting to retire when you die.

    Being head of state is never easy in any country, but few do it for seventy years.

    Love her or hate her, or agree with that type of government model or not, all commentators agree she fulfilled her role well.

    I wonder what sort of legacy and comments Charles III will attract?

    She never condemned the actions of her armed forces and poloticians here in ireland. She never condemned Andrews criminal actions and there are plenty more examples of her scandalous behaviour. Hiding money overseas to evade tax. And hardly a hard job to do when you have cars, planes, boats and trains at your disposal and at no personal cost. Multiple homes, staff, servants and advisors. The best medical treatment at a moments notice. If I had those resources at my disposal I could live an equally long and privileged life.

    What work did she do. I'm not clued up on the Royals but she never did a day's work in her life. She never lived life like a normal person. She made appearances around the world and ate fine food, her health kept in check by the best of doctors and medicines. She lived in a bubble, she never lived a day in her life.

    In the twelve months to her death she carried out 341 public engagements, and supported over 600 charities. If you have, or have had, any relatives in their mid-nineties you should have some idea how tough it is to get up from a chair, never mind trailing round the country.

    She did not do much lifting of weights, but she spent countless hours on her feet, with little opportunity to switch off, and almost none of it was for her own pleasure.
    Help Keyla fund her battle with cancer - give what you can spare.
