She's done one or two in the past 60 odd years so I should imagine she has more than a fair idea. ;)

Monday night, so Her Maj's visit to South Bank is over.

Not because I'm anti-Royal or anything, it's just taking a hell of a lot of planning (for the last 6 weeks) and I'm gonna be doing stuff for it all weekend, and I'm just a little bit over to it. I wonder if she has any idea how many man hours of planning it takes for so many people because she's going to be visiting us for a few hours.

But I'm sure it will all go swimmingly :fingerscrossed:

I wish to thank all of you for your kind words during the most somber time of my life. Sorry if I am too lazy to multi-quote the posts.

My husband was discharged Friday and is home. I suspect it will be a good couple of months until he is well enough to resume work. And I am really knackered, too. At times I feel I want to run away.

Again, my thanks to all who responded publicly and via PM. I am touched by your humanity.

We're going to a red carpet dinner at Matilda Bay Restaurant tomorrow night because I entered my husband in a celebrity look-alike contest and he's a runner up. http://www.mix.com.au/win/celebrity-...2011-finalists He's #6.

I used to love the thread in the lounge - Lookeylikeys - to see how many BE members resembled famous people.

But someone likened one of the mods to Myra Hindley, got himself banned and the thread closed.:frown:

I wish I looked like someone famous.:)
