The Queen's Walking stick

I'm thinking she might just have told all her advisors abd medical people to back off and that she will make her own choices thank you very much!

I noticed when she was at Prince Phillips memorial service she had a thumb stick, but it seemed to be a shorter one that had obviously been tailored to fit her. I was so taken by it that I asked my son, who makes walking sticks for a hobby, to make one for me (it’s a work in progress?!). The one she had the other night seemed to be a longer one and yes, she was holding it on the shaft. It suited her and the occasion and she’s probably used to using it like that. Could be wrong of course!

It will be like the sort of thumb stick she has used for years stalking at Balmoral.
If she finds it helpful who is to say otherwise?

I saw her on TV at the platinum jubilee celebrations and she looked lovely then I clocked the stick , she looked like she was about to scale a mountain, it looked like a typical country hiking stick... but so what, I mean who cares as long as she is happy with it and it gives her confidence.

What a remarkable lady.....

It doesn't look very supportive. Maybe it's more for balance than actually helping take pressure off a joint?

There’s a children’s book called The queen’s knickers.

That was to Lucca.

And the queen’s nose…. Dick king smith

Oh I didn’t know that Lucca.

Long live the Queen. And she has!

If a walking pole type of stick helps HM to fulfil her duties at this stage of her life, then it's a good choice. I'm sure she has access to the best advice and has been advised to use this aid as apposed to a conventional walking stick. I wish her well for her Platinum Jubilee celebrations.

I`ve got a copy of The Queen`s Knickers, bought it years ago for my grandson.

The trad type of hip height stick doesn't help much if the spine is the main problem. I thought the thumb stick looked ideal and was helping her to keep upright.

If only the Queen was on Gransnet then she would know that she has a stick that is the wrong height and she doesn't know how to use it properly
