Wow! That's more royal exposure than most Brits get, if they aren't making a hobby of it or moving in exalted social circles.
My headmistress was invited to a royal Garden Party once, and told us all about it afterwards at a special assembly. The detail that sticks in my mind is that there was a cloakroom-tent with dressing tables, with hairbrushes and such laid out. (Doesn't sound very hygienic!)
Mission Statement
Reading, writing, plant photography, and the small details of my life, with digressions into science and computing.
