The Queen came to my town yesterday to present an award to our local British Schools Museum and to meet local shopkeepers. Our school was there, waving flags and singing Jerusalem and we got to see her up close! 30 of our children were chosen to dress Victorians and stand near the stage. it was very exciting. She's smaller than you think and looks just like your granny in her church clothes.

I saw her when I was a child. All I remember was that it was a baking hot summer day.
 
Aw :) cool. The queen visited my uni last year but I didn't see her.
 
The Queen is a badass:

My dad met the queen once, she was having a BBQ while he was camping with my uncle near Balmoral. My dad and uncle were eating cup a soup or something equally rubbish and she came over and asked if they had enough to eat :).
