No Way to Treat Your Husband
The poor old sod is 98 years old. He and Queenie have been married for 72 years. He gets taken into hospital and she buggers off on her Christmas holiday, and leaves him on his own. I would be very upset if Mrs L did that to me.

She just wants him out of her hair for a few days while she gets everything ready for Christmas without the "my mum never did it like that" comments.

Princess Andrew of Greece and Denmark was an admirable woman in many ways. But I doubt if preparing for an English royal Christmas was one of her strong points. |

Perhaps Prince Phillip is being treated now before the U S insurance companies take over the NHS and refuse to treat pre existing conditions!

And there's me thinking you were an expert royalist:lol:
I’m certainly not a royalist expert, but my reference source for Phil the Greek’s mater was the Almanach de Gotha. Amazingly, I do have quite a set of them on the shelves in my study, as I get old editions discarded by libraries. |

I find myself reading a lot more royal stories than I did years ago. I’ll look at the front page of the Guardian or BBC online, see one potentially depressing story after another (ISIS, school shooting, Brexit, Trump, etc.) The antidote? Just read the royal family story du jour! That’s today’s news done & dusted. I’m certainly not a royalist expert, but my reference source for Phil the Greek’s mater was the Almanach de Gotha.

I watched episode 4 of series 3 of The Crown last night without knowing in advance what it was about. Turns out a large part of the story was about Prince Phillips mother. Never knew she was a nun, assuming it was factually correct.
