Queen Elizabeth II celebrates 65 years on the throne.

I hope she had plenty of magazines to pass the time. :smiley:

Maybe some fiber in her diet will help?

OK, my ten year old self is firmly back under control. I’ll make no mention of Prince Phillip and the crown jewels.

Sending well wishes to the Queen.

My favorite Queen Elizabeth picture.

Perfectly safe for work.

She has enjoyed some remarkable moments.

There’s video of her on horseback at the Trooping the Colour ceremony. Some idiot shoots a blank pistol multiple times and spooks her horse.

The Queen does a masterful job of staying in the saddle and getting it back under control. A less experienced horseman would have been thrown off and injured.

Finally found that video. People that ride know how easily any horseman could be thrown. Elizabeth was obviously a very experienced rider.

Long may she reign.

Charles may well end up being the shortest reigning king if she keeps this up.

His great - great - grandfather would have sympathised.

Well, long she* has*, hasn’t she?

When Louis XIV died, he had managed to outlive his oldest son and his son’s oldest son, which means that Louis XV was his great-grandson. He, in turn, outlived his son is well. His grandson, though, had a pretty bad fate.

I remember watching her coronation on TV, when I was 6.
