*raises cup....congratulations to the plucky pair. As a matter of fact I always fancied Philip but due to circumstances beyond my control (I was too common) he chose Elizabeth. *sighs.....

Dear All

Hello

Hope you are okay.

Queen Elizabeth and Prince Philip's marriage is the longest in royal history for a reigning monarch and consort.

It would have been nice to if a commerative picture had been released to mark the occasion.


Take gentle care
Best wishes
Elizabeth, EOS
