Poor Sarah Brown, she's lost a child and has a son with a very serious genetic disease. She did look uncomfortable but maybe she felt uncomfortable.

Yes.... and the poor Camerons too.

Pantglas you missed out money and private doctors who see you the same day ??

Wouldn't we all love that!? Would take away a lot of anxiety, which isn't good for health.
One of the great advantages the royals have.

Princess Anne looked the fittest of all of them yesterday - she's only a couple of years younger than Charles but she looked as if she could carry on marching for miles. She's slim and upright and holds herself well.

Luck, genes and looking after yourself- Anne got all three, Cherie? None! Nothing she could do about the first two but she’s not renowned for her exercise regime either!

I admire the way Princess Anne (in her 70s) kept cadence better than some of the military personel around her. In one of the processions there was a chap in uniform just behind her who was constantly out of step.

I can't believe that Cherie would be waiting for a hip operation! The Blairs are not short of a bob or two.

It is certainly interesting seeing some of them after a gap of many years, they have aged, I expect they would think the same of us!

It's pure luck and your genes. I have friends my age and younger who have had double hip replacements others who have had knees done. They were all walking badly until their op. I suppose Cherie may be waiting for one. I haven't had anything done- I'm lucky.
Did anyone notice she was chatting away to George Brown?
Oh and what about Tony's comb over? Centre parting then a bit to cover the bald spot on either side!!!

I agree about the weight Maw - she has my sympathies on that score!!

She’s younger than a lot of attendees at the service(s) that’s what made me wonder if she has/had health issues. Princess Anne is older and walked for miles and Canilla at 75 doesn’t seem to have any mobility problems.

I think she’s 68 this week

No age!
I also wondered about a hip issue- and also (not unkindly) whether she had not put on a bit of weight?
Sarah Brown also seemed to be “hirpling “ - maybe she’s got out of the habit of wearing heels?

Age catches up with all of us.

In yesterday’s coverage from Windsor she appeared to be walking with quite a marked limp/odd gait and was wearing flat ‘sensible’ shoes. Has she had a hip or knee replacement I wonder?
