Doesn't that say it all? My partner has met the Queen a few times, and I have photos of my brother meeting Princess Anne. I've met none of them, and really can't say I care one bit at all. I was out cutting the hedges when the UK watched Princess Diana's funeral. <br /><br />I have to say that as far as Royals go I do quite like Prince Harry and William. :) But I wouldn't go out of my way to see them. Maybe I'll bump into Harry in Vegas sometime. ;)LL Cool Joehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13916666100971008775noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3168047058963833173.post-14601294797228801612013-05-07T20:34:16.199-06:002013-05-07T20:34:16.199-06:00No, I would not go out of my way to meet British R...No, I would not go out of my way to meet British Royalty, although if I ran into him in Hobby Lobby I would be quite giddy about seeing him, and in all my flustered-ness, I'm sure I would forget my royal manners, so I doubt I would courtsey. Fall down at his feet, maybe, but not courtsey. <br />I doubt he would notice me anyway. After all, he only has eyes for you, I'm sure.

His lineage is not more special than mine (ours). Still, he's more than welcome to come over for a spot of tea. <br />I personally make a beeline for the art toys at Hobby Lobby. Won't catch me near the silk flowers. Maybe that's why I missed him.

I'm lazy that way. It seems like a lot of work to go to all the hassle of trying to see them in person when I can probably get a better glimpse on t.v. Besides, I would get tongue tied and look like an idiot anyway.<br /><br />2. Following royal protocol would be a nice gesture. Let's just not let the Honey Boo Boo family near them.<br /><br />3. Hobby Lobby? Yes, I'm sure it was him. He was probably picking up a t-shirt and some fabric paint to make himself a commemorative shirt to mark the occasion.terrihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12510457113017189354noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3168047058963833173.post-36451266195560956682013-05-07T12:23:20.525-06:002013-05-07T12:23:20.525-06:00As soon as I can stop giggling at the photo, I'...As soon as I can stop giggling at the photo, I'll try to answer. Hmmm...<br /><br />#1 Probably not. I live about an hour away from Williamsburg and when the queen was here, I was interested, but not willing to jump through all the hoops necessary.<br /><br />#2 Royal protocol here? Why not? Let's have fun with it. Kinda do that "wink* thing after you bow.<br /><br />#3 Hobby Lobby? That's the craft store, right? That sounds like a "Harry" thing to do. Btw, I think you make a good looking couple. Shhh...Let's not tell Magnum.Anitahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08180243708565855383noreply@blogger.com
