You saw Queen Elizabeth in person, and were up close too (Presidents and dignitaries, too). That's a lesson, VIPs exists in real life not just on the internet. They can be engaged with.

Do you know if Amb. and Mrs Farrish are attending the funeral? They had the honour of being personal friends of HM.

Noore, no idea ... if they are invited - it would be their decision to make that public.
