Announcement from Buckingham Palace?

Even more clumpy and boring - like mine I should imagine!

Ah but I wonder what's in her "personal" closet. You never know, dark horses are just that!

I doubt that HM or Prince Philip would be taken in by such nonsense.

Her shoes are as sturdy and stalwart as she is!

It's a "brand" branding doesn't really have much to do with quality unfortunately. People are just silly enough to go with it

I saw a newly married woman on tv this morning who had bought Jimmy Choo's - they practically fell to bits after one wearing! She and her MIL were trying to get the £400 back. I think she succeeded in getting a credit voucher from the shop.

I only do mascara and lippy as well, have tried the eye pencil but DH wondered if I was not feeling very well.

good for you Jalima!

Got a funny story for you -

Mate of mine does wardrobes for the well "heeled" (pardon the pun) I was going on a date and she offered her help.

Well!
She stuck me in some outfit I found it hard to breath in.
Put "smokey" eyes on me ( I looked like I'd gone a couple of rounds with Mike Tyson)
Then came the Jimmy Choo's!

I ran home, redressed, washed my face, stuck on a bit of mascara and lippy, and was ready!

but the was very nice

sure?
More Unwinspeak

I am surfe Prince Philip wears very sensible shoes.

It's OK for men

I go from winter laceups to summer laceups saak

Although I do have some sandals for when I don't intend to walk
and some MJ's for traversing from car to wherever I intend to sit down.

I want some kitten-heeled leopard print very expensive Jimmy Choos or whatever make.

mine too Jalima. I've never known how to wear "shoes" well. I go from boots in the winter to open toed in the summer.

Even HM would turn her nose up at mine!

we know who'll win that!!!

Very envious of TM's shoes, I wish I could wear similar ones!!

Pistols at dawn even over who wears the best shoes

I think that may have been maggie's problem towards the end of her reign anyway

I'm sure they get on very well. So long as TM remembers who's Queen.

I can't see any reason why she wouldn't like a strong woman :/

iyswim as I changed what I was posting part way through

I'm not sure if the Queen loves 'strong women' - although she is a strong, stoic and stalwart woman herself. But then we only have one previous female PM so perhaps that is not enough to judge.

I think she got on very well with some PMs - especially Wilson! although some she did not like others so much, especially Blair or Heath.

Good for him. Hope he enjoys his remaining time. As for May, love her and I'm sure the Queen does too.

Charles will be 70 next year. Don't think he needs to keep working to top up his pension!

True Jalima, and an uncle who became a surrogate father , it would be so hard to forgive

Not many of us would have to do that in the course of our duties, would we Anniebach, thank goodness.

It could be now doesn't have to encounter Corbyn, it must be difficult coming face to face with a man who supported the killers of his uncle

dj I think you could be right!
And I don't blame him - how much should a man take?
