Let me tell you, it is quite a daunting experience queuing in the Portrait Gallery of Buckingham Palace,being tutored by the Equerry to HRH on how to curtsy before meeting with HRH.
Why on earth do I need to purchase a "pin", I don't wear the medal I justly received from HRH, just saying! I display a commemorative sticker in my car purchased from RBL, as I say, no one can link me personally to my car, I am not one for wearing pins.
Rant over.
Thank you for reading.
Wowee! For someone 'not seeking fame or fortune' you would have kept that information from your friends on this forum but because we are special you allowed as to become overawed by your presence.
As for having to be taught how to curtsy, how traumatic that must have been, having to put one foot forward and bending a knee!
