6. I was just thinking, the other day, how happy and relaxed the Queen has looked, lately.

Until recently, she was mired in 'traditional royalty' mode but now she's been letting her guard down and smiling, relaxed and enjoying life. She knows her days, and her husband's days, are limited. She's finally passing on some responsibilities to her son and making her own work load lighter. It is obvious from watching her interactions with her grandchildren and great grandchildren, her family gives her great joy.

Then trump* arrived.

They say that if Parliament handed the Queen her own death warrant, she'd have to sign it, so I'm pretty sure she had no say in this catastrophe.
