  1. This is one of the really big questions. Let's just hope he lives long enough for us to have an answer!

  2. he. may bail before June, so as not to pressure the Queen. She has a lot on her plate.

    1. Linda Sue; She does have a lot to do, but sending a telegram doesn't take much time, just a phone call I think.
      I meant this as a bit of a joke, since he lives right there, so there's no need for the telegram that many people (not all) get in nursing homes etc.

  4. ....just as long as it's not a renewal of his driver's licence!

    1. MedicatedMoo; he hasn't had a licence for several years now, not since he ran his car into a ditch, or whatever it was that happened.

  5. Didn't know she did that. Maybe just slip him a card with his tea.

    1. Arkansas Patti; the Queen does send out congratulatory telegrams, people here in Australia have received them. Not everybody, which makes me wonder how she chooses.

  6. I hope that blogger will allow me to comment this time. It has flatly refused two earlier attempts. I hope that the Queen is close enough to him not to need to send him a telegram - and that his grandson rings him from overseas.

    1. Elephant's Child; I think a telegram might be good for a laugh while they drink their cups of tea. Going further, when the Queen turns 100, will she herself receive 'the telegram'?
      I certainly hope and expect that Harry will ring him.

    1. Andrew; that shouldn't be hard, they live in the same house/palace/castle/ retreat in Scotland. One goes where the other goes.

    1. Lee; and will she send herself the telegram when she turns 100? Ha Ha.

  9. Well, she has staff for that, you know...

    1. Joanne; that's true she does have staff, and plenty of them.

  10. Heh, heh! That's a good question. I wonder if telegrams go out automatically. There can't be so many upcoming centenarians as to justify a full-time job for somebody to physically sent them out. If there WAS a list that would kick out a telegram, would Prince Philip be on it? I say no.

    1. Val; if there is a list, who chooses who goes on it? We've had people here in Australia get a telegram from the queen, but with more and more people living longer surely they won't all be getting telegrams from the palace. I am wondering if Prince Philip is on the list.

  11. Good question as I wondered that myself but I don't think he will, might get a peck on the cheek if he's lucky :)

    1. Margaret D; he'd probably prefer a peck on the cheek.

  12. Your question made me smile. It would be a good laugh if she did.
