👑The Queen is remarkably good at her job, as even Republicans might concede.
She takes the time to engage with people, genuinely listening to their stories and being interested in their lives.
When you’re good at your job and you still enjoy it, why give it up?

There is something indomitable about the wartime generation.
Just Look at Sir David Attenborough. He is still broadcasting, still campaigning and just a fortnight younger than the Queen.

We are unlikely to see the Queen strapped to the wing of a plane any time soon but, provided that the current health scare permits, there’s little doubt that she’ll be out and about again being “seen and believed” before too long.
