Anniversary

Not being overly taken with monarchy I wasn't paying much attention to the coverage of the Queen and Prince Philip's diamond wedding anniversary this week, until this evening when I saw a segment of a report from Malta where the pair have gone (as they did after their wedding in 1947) on ITN this evening. There's Romilly Weeks and her amazing cheekbones reporting from Malta; she says something I'm not really listening to as I'm deciding what to make for dinner, something like how this is an unusually public display for a normally private couple and how romantic it was. Unaware that behind her Prince Philip has walked past, stopped right behind her listening, big grin on his face, she finishes, turns and sees him laughing and he says "is it really?", laughs and walks off. I'm not normally a fan of Phil the Greek but that was funny.

  1. One has to appreciate the comedy value of a man who is worshipped as a god by the people of a small Pacific island.
