THE QUEEN (click here) broke with tradition to mark the start of the Platinum Jubilee move as she took the "unusual" move of inviting the public into her private Sandringham Estate.
The Queen marked the start of her Platinum Jubilee year with her first public engagement of the year. Last Saturday, on the eve of the Jubilee, the Queen hosted a reception at Sandringham House in Norfolk. ITV's royal correspondent Chris Ship commented that the decision to invite the public and media into Sandringham was "quite unusual"....
I think by opening the Sandringham Estate to the public she can still stay in touch after Charles is made king. I hope that occurs soon. I think the UK is ready for Charles and Camilla and a bit of a different tone of leadership with a man at the head of the government. Seventy years is a long time for Queen Elizabeth II. She was greatly admired and always addressed the issues of the day with grace and intelligence. She will always be remembered with fondness.

Camilla, Duchess of Cornwall (click here) is speaking out for the first time about her future title of Queen Consort.
Prince Charles' wife stepped out solo in London on Thursday, including a stop at community kitchen Nourish Hub. There, she was asked by a member of the public about Queen Elizabeth confirming her wish over the weekend for Camilla to be known as Queen Consort when her husband eventually becomes King.
"I feel very, very honored and very touched," Camilla answered.
Camilla's outing on Thursday came as the couple's office at Clarence House announced that Prince Charles, 73, tested positive for COVID-19 and was self-isolating. His visit to Winchester was canceled with hopes to reschedule for the near future....
