"Yer usual, Lilibet, luvvie?"



From today's Daily Mirror:
Drinkers in a local pub were amazed when none other than Her Majesty the Queen popped in for a drink and a bite to eat.

The monarch and her companions enjoyed two portions of the £16.50 portion of lamb, a fillet of sea bass, a Martini and half a bottle of wine at the The Sheep Heid Inn in Edinburgh on Friday, it has been reported.

The pub, reputedly Scotland’s oldest, is a short drive from Holyrood Palace where the Queen stayed last week.

Staff were given an hour's notice to prepare for the royal visit, which followed a day at Musselburgh Racecourse.

She sat in the public dining area by a window, reports the Edinburgh Evening News.
I hope she bought a round.

  1. Imagine walking past the window and then telling people the queen was in the pub. They would think you were mad.
    God Bless Her.

    1. 'Twas funny - when I first read this article, I honestly thought she'd polished off "two portions of the £16.50 portion of lamb, a fillet of sea bass, a Martini and half a bottle of wine" to herself! Jx
