My kingdom for a story

 

At the time when Italian people are perhaps about to choose the far right, the English show us many of them crying, mourning, deeply distressed. Above all, they have lost their (English) sense of humour…

Some people tell anecdotes about the queen. The journalists relay boring stories, made to furnish this abysmal void like a big cloud of lead.


Oh my dear, I think, I don’t have any anecdot about the queen !

And yet…

The queen was born in 1926

My mother was born in 1927

The queen died in 2022

My mother died in 2021

The queen has had four children

My mother has had four children

Both have had three boys and a girl

The princess Anne was born in 1950

I was born in 1950

 

Isn’t that interesting ?

This piece of literary fun for my dear friend who lives in a beautiful place in England and is not allowed to make fun, even a tiny bit, of this planetary event.

 



 isn't not a beautiful place?
