"There are millions more who are quietly pro royal, respecting the service many of them perform, and appreciating much of what many of them do."
Yes, I'm one of those too. I recall accompanying my teacher wife on a trip to France with a party of schoolchildren.; it was 1977, iirc, and HM's silver jubilee. Our hosts went to great trouble to enable our party to see a large tv screen at one of their houses so that we could watch the broadcast celebrations. The thing that struck me was that our hosts were FAR more interested in the events than we were ........ and that made me think again about the value of our royal family.
Don't knock it - as Joni sang, 'you don't know what you've got 'til it's gone'.
