A wonderful woman, may she reign over us with Prince Philip by her side, for many more years to come :-)

Every year, when I look at her dressed in black - standing in front of the Cenotaph, I think it is a very moving and poignant sight.

Researching:
I am researching the Wotherspoon family from the Old/New Monkland areas of Scotland, some moved to the Leslie and Kelty areas of Fife and I'm having problems linking the Wotherspoon's from Leslie and the Wotherspoon's from Kelty. I am also researching the Clusker family from Co. Meath in Ireland who moved to West Lothian and from there to Fife............"Vita non est vivere sed valere vita est"

I wondered where Prince Harry was, he was noticeable by his absence - turns out he has made a surprise visit to Afghanistan and joined the remaining troops there for their Remembrance Sunday ceremony - Well Done Young Man :-)
