Celebrating Jubilee: The Lighter Side

The Queen may be many things, but insiders all say that she's a woman with a wicked sense of humour. A gifted mimic, well-known for her enjoyment of  minor mishaps at public events (and lively games of charades), she is known to enjoy the lighter side of life. For someone in her late 80s who has been stuck in the same job for 60 years (with no prospect of retirement), I suspect a sense of humour is a necessary thing.
