Queen hands over Cenotaph duties

I had fun reading some of the Daily Wail comments on this news item.

But I saw some footage the other day of HM - and she was looking rather frail, understandably at 91!

This has wheels and a basket for the wreath. One could also add a bottle of whisky, just to keep out the chill.
 
Sorry off topic.

As usual Zero Alpha and I walked the long route to Sainsbury (about 3 miles round instead of about 1½ miles round on the direct).

Halfway up the hill we caught up with a little old lady. "I've walked from home near the golf course (a couple of miles). I'm nearly 90 years old. Going to the library (best part of another mile). Got a bit of sciatica and I'm walking it off. I'll probably get the taxi back."

Respect to her. I hope she gets her telegram. Most of the middle aged around here are on fúcking mobility scooters. The rest of the people we see walk dogs.
 
I was at Warwick auctions yesterday when a hardly used motability scooter went for 50 Quid! surely a ramp wouldnt cost that much either. Maybe some gold tassels and a bit of bling and a royal crest on the side perhaps? There are plenty of folks on scooters attending every year anyway?
