Interesting to think that if you say that phrase anywhere in the world, everyone knows you are talking about this lady.

Gotta remember the old gal is 91, give her credit for hanging in there. Last of the old style monarchs, wouldn't say Shit if her mouth was full of it. Wink Hubby on the other hand is a much more visceral character, he has been known to put his foot in his mouth on occasion.

I've never really paid a lot of attention to any of hte Monarchs of the world BUT I have often really enjoyed Prince Phillips conduct...he gets away with stuff nobody else in the world could say or do. And he says some of the most off the wall stuff...I would like to believe he does it just to see if anyone will call him on it. Smiler

Well she has out ruled Victoria (in years)+ her husband Phillip is a Mountbatten (cousin to Lord Mountbatten,the last Viceroy of India,before being murdered by the IRA in 1978) thus making the new princes ones as well.They married in 1947,right before the demise of Britain's colonial empire.(WW2 took care of that,among other things). Sorry, this is history + this is the humor column. O.K. just one more as this is still a hunting site.Elizabeth was in India looking at the colonies as they were during the downslide. Her guide + protector was Jim Corbett. He put her up in a machan in a tree + stood guard all night at the base of the tree.In the night the old monarch died + she was the immediate successor.Corbett's comment was ,"She ascended the tree a princess + descended a queen."Enough 101 for tonight.

Good story, but she was in Kenya in a treehouse watching elephants at a waterhole. Corbett may have been there but it is doubtful.

When considering US based operations of guides/outfitters, check and see if they are NRA members. If not, why support someone who doesn't support us? Consider spending your money elsewhere.

NEVER, EVER book a hunt with BLAIR WORLDWIDE HUNTING or JEFF BLAIR.

I have come to understand that in hunting, the goal is not the goal but the process.

Gato,you may be right,although it destroys my memory of the story + shatters the delusion that as the old adage says, (sic) "When the legend + fact become contraversial ;print the legend."
