Poor old Duke of Ed.

I hope so too!
Even he is a grumpy old man!

Poor chap - like the rest of you I imagine yesterday contributed to his infection and hope the IV antibiotics do the business for him. her Madge would be devastated to lose him.
To my shame, my initial reaction was to think"Some people will do anything to get out of a pop concert on their doorstep!"
I wish him well and trust he will make a complete recovery (If Edward VII allows )

I'm amazed how much the organizers expect the Queen and D of E to undertake. They're both very elderly and yesterday must have pretty much pole-axed them. Prince Phillip has only just recovered from a serious heart condition. Much has been said about them choosing not to sit down yesterday but they were more than likely using the backs of the 'thrones' as a windbreak. Sitting down would have meant full exposure to the elements.
It won't be the same without him being at the Queen's side for the rest of the celebrations.

No wonder he's got a bladder infection, standing in the cold, damp weather yesterday. Hope he recovers ok.

It was all very well for the Queen to be all noble. But there were others there.

I bet Camilla could have done with a sit down. She's no spring chicken.

I was thinking that, jingl. Can't have done him any good.
Hope he recovers soon.
