Who? The Queen

What? A white dress and white cardi with silver embroidery accessorised with a pearl necklace and earrings. She was carrying a pale chain strap handbag but couldn't seem to get up the courage to swap her black patent leather shoes for a lighter colour.

Some people here really have no idea what they are talking about. For a 1000 years this nation has not suffered invasion. France, Germany, and every European nation hassuffered it population being dislocated and murdred by tyrants. Holland's population were turned into refugees so was Frances.
Small minded men have no persepective at all. They want but cant see the bigger picture and whats more deny it.
