This Diamond Jubilee has got me worn out. Four days of celebrating,eating, drinking and flag waving has got me shattered
Well, I saw some of it on television here, and it looked incredible! Definitely not something you see every day (at least, not since the days of Queen Victoria).
And if you think you're exhausted, imagine how she must feel after all that celebrating, eating, drinking, etc. (Unconfirmed rumor has it that she went on a late-night pub crawl, got thoroughly snockered and ended up in a brawl that landed three burly policemen in hospital. )
Not bad for 86!

"Sure I cook with wine - sometimes I even add it to the food!"
"When life itself seems lunatic, who knows where madness lies?"
"It was a grass harp... And we listened."
"Do any human beings ever realize life while they live it? Every, every minute?"
