Well, when I stood out in the cold rain waving, my mom never called me brave or hardy. She always asked if I had enough sense to come in out of the rain. But, to each their own.

What other head of state could stand in the open air, on a boat, on a river, travelling very slowly, through one of the worlds biggest cities, surrounded by millions of people, enclosed by many tall buildings and not look a tad worried? Gord bless 'er. Obama couldn't do it, nor Putin, Hollande, Jintao etc She is brave, and hardy, it is cold and pouring with rain and she is still standing waving at the crowds.

It is a family business. And at least when it comes to having a head of state we have a family that are trained and educated in the job. Backed up by professionals with a 1000 years of experience to fall back on. We don't have to elect a president who is so desperate to get the job that he sells his soul to whoever will bankroll the campaign. A lot of countries prefer their system of allowing a man or woman to take temporary control then disappear. We like our system of continuity and history.

You're right. I guess when you're 86 common sense starts to dwindle.

Because it makes us feel good: about our country, our monarchy and ourselves. And just for a few hours we can forget the venal, thieving politicians, here and in the EU, who really rule our lives.

I would like to point out that the whole of the £10 million cost was entirely met from private contributions. The security costs were met from the public purse, but I have been advised that the exercise was used a 'dry-run' for security at the Olympics later this summer.

Correct me if I'm wrong, Dave. Isn't she just a symbol of your country's past. She has no ruling power anymore, correct?
