Well, The Queen now is 90 years old. Do any of you think that she should abdicate? She looked today like she was falling asleep at the church service for her birthday.
Are there any 90 year olds on here still working?
Is it not time for her to put on her tartan slippers, wrap herself in her shawl, sit in her favourite arm chair and watch some daytime tele? Is it not time for her to let the younger (if Charles can be classed as younger if you know what I mean) to take over the lead of the country?
I think I would be quite upset at sending my mother/grandmother out to work at 90 years old.
snoop, these creations are lovely and a lot of time and effort has clearly been put into them. I love the crown!! When I worked in a Care Home in another life, on occasion local school children used to visit and do handy craft with the residents, those who wanted to that is. It was a case of the the old and the young helping and interacting with each other. It was very worthwhile on both fronts, particularly as there was always a cuppa in it!!!
nigglynellie the children do interact with the residents on special occasions. At Easter, they helped the residents to decorate a personal Easter bonnet.
DGD2 (age 4) seems to have a fascination with Princess Charlotte (and to a lesser degree Prince George). She's always asking questions about them, perhaps they mentioned them at play group. Otherwise I don't know why or how as I don't think DIL and DS are particularly royalty-minded! She is always asking me if I have any pictures of Charlotte (how could I tell her that they had gone out in the recycling - oops!).
You'll have to pretend?!!!!!!! Gone for a good cause?!!!! She might ask where, and you'd have to say! Could get difficult!!! It is good when you get interaction like that between the generations, both sides have a lot to give.
