My personal opinion about the statue: The statue looks like shite but oh well.
Some videos featuring The Queen. It's fascinating to note she prefers decaf coffee and her French is impeccable! Tres beaucoup!
FYI you can spot Diana in the 2nd video. She looks much skinnier there.
Aboard the Queen's ship, service is a top priority. Watch as Queen Elizabeth II tells Ronald Reagan that "we try our best..." as she tracks down a decaf for the former US President during a reception in Florida in 1991. Bonus: can spot Jeb Bush in the crowd. He wasn't yet Governor of Florida, but was the son of the incumbent US President.
On July 15, 1991, Queen Elizabeth II hosted a reception for leaders of the G7 countries and guests. The highlight is Queen Elizabeth joking with former UK Prime Minister Edward Heath that his trip to Baghdad before the Gulf War was okay because he was "expendable." This behind-the-scene video includes: - Queen Elizabeth, US Secretary of State James Baker and former UK Prime Minister Edward Heath discussion the Gulf War - Queen Elizabeth speaking to French President François Mitterrand in French - US First Lady Barbara Bush joking with Princess Diana - German Chancellor Helmot Kohl and former UK Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher on German re-unification - Former UK Prime Minister Thatcher speaking with the Prime Minister of Japan - Prince Charles discussing his funding of a charity from sale of his lithographs
The Queen and The Princess Royal have visited the Edinburgh Climate Change Institute at the University of Edinburgh to learn about their work to tackle climate change. Her Majesty and Princess Anne travelled to the engagement - which was the last of her visit to Scotland - in an electric hybrid Range Rover.
