Glad to oblige Douglas. these are the latest figures I could find.
// In the fiscal year 2019/2020, the Royal Estate's income from ticket admissions in the United Kingdom rose over the previous year. Overall, the admission income peaked at nearly 49.9 million British pounds//

Good grief, there are some moaning nasty people on this post.
I , for one don't envy any part of the Queen's life. She has served this country well .As for living in luxury ,I don't think she has been extravagant and thrown money around. Although she doesn't actually need to she insists on paying tax. However what she does with her money is her business and if she has allegedly helped Andrew out with his money problem then so be it. Most parents ,rich or poor, would probably do the same if they had the means to.
As for receiving first class health care ? What would you do ?Shove her in an ambulance and ship her off to one of these Nightingale hospitals. For God's sake you don't have to fall to the floor and kiss her feet and fawn all over her. Just accept that we are a Monarchy and at this present time she is the Queen .

Having read all of the posts, I feel this subject is in exactly the correct category - Film, Media and TV

Further to the 'frugal' post, I'd like to thank andres for the previously unknown definition of 'insists'.

Can you explain why Maggie?

[ynnafymmi]

Best wishes to Her Majesty from all us Scottish ABers.

[ToraToraTora]

pat: "Can you explain why Maggie? " - as usual she is making some snide implication. That's what nasties do.

She'll have bucked up a tad after hearing her horse (Kincardine) won the first at Newbury.

Whilst I fully agree with andres post it would appear that for some there may be a sticking point :

If it is then that is definitely not right

Boris refused to be drawn on it

Hope he is not toadying up to her after the drinks the night before Prince Philip’s funeral furore ?

[andres]

thanks TTT and pat.^^^ Douglas -I will replace 'insists' with 'volunteered'

[Bobbisox1]

Margo, sorry your well meaning thread has brought forth such nastiness , take heart that people like Andre’s has spoken for the majority of us on here

[Bobbisox1]

Yep, I know of that first hand ynnafymmi, and I know where my allegiance lies

[MargoTester]

Thanks Bobbi, sad that it got rather out of hand but everyone is entitled to their opinion I guess. Just a shame that they can't acknowledge the fact that she has given a lifetime of service to this country

[bednobs]

i wish her well (seriously)
after all what will happen t the bank holiday of she doesnt survive till then? (joke)

///the anti Monarchists never acknowledge the good.///

You've obviously missed my favourable posts on HMQ.

[rowanwitch]

I have mixed feelings. I respect the queen and believe she has been a great servant as well as monarch, trying to do what is required of her with grace and dignity.
I do wonder; bearing in mind she is a christian, and would therefore have a personal certainty of being reunited with her beloved Philip whether she might wish she could set aside duty, and live a quiet life until it is time to join him.
Maybe she will use this jubilee year as her farewell tour before letting Charles assume a regency allowing to fulfil her promise to serve as queen for her lifetime while having some peace and calm in her final years.

That thinking does explain some of your painfully idiotic posts. "You're either for us or you're a terrorist sympathiser."
