Britain’s Queen Elizabeth II meets legendary guitarists Jeff Beck (L), Eric Clapton (2nd L), Jimmy Page (C) and Brian May (2nd R) during a reception at Buckingham Palace in London.
Queen Elizabeth: Remember that night in Manchester back in 1966 when you slipped me a key to your hotel room, or was that Keith Richards?
Somewhere in the United Kingdom, the person who snapped this photo is quite likely laughing his or her ass off:
More payback, perhaps, from the British Royal Family? You be the judge…
OPEN THREAD!
The Sage of Buckingham Palace is a washed up and pathetic individual. If Charles is not not ranting about Global Warming , he’s telling people to bath less. The Prince of Wales considered a joke and is not taken serious. Well it turns out, Chuck is about to break a record. He will be the longest serving Prince of Wales and heir apparent to the British thrown. Clearly odds are that Charles and his Un Mata Hari wife will not sit on the throne. Or if they did, it would be brief.
LONDON (AFP) – Prince Charles on Wednesday become the longest-serving heir apparent in British history, having waited to take over from Queen Elizabeth II for 59 years, two months and 14 days.
Just days before his eldest son Prince William marries his university sweetheart Kate Middleton, Charles has overtaken the record set by his great-great grandfather king Edward VII.
The prince became heir apparent when his mother, the then princess Elizabeth, acceded to the throne to become queen on February 6, 1952.
Edward VII was born the heir apparent on November 9, 1841 when his mother, queen Victoria, was already on the throne.
Read the rest: Prince Charles’ record-breaking wait to take throne
Poor Charles, he’s waited so long to be King. It’s possible that Chuck will never take the throne. Like his namesake is just the butt of jokes. Maybe he should start a blog while he waits to be king. The Sage of Buckingham Palace can rant about global warming all day!
