It is because of all the "rules" makes the below so much more enjoyable when it happens.

Royal life exists in a lot of countries. If that's how they still want it, well that's their right. I wouldn't want some other countries making fun and saying how silly our country is and they can't believe we still live this way. It's how we've always lived and we like it. Same for them. Their rules are older than ours, that's why they seem so different.

It has always been one of mine.  If you notice she was laughing because no one told her it was Prince Philip until she came up on him standing there at attention.  Love for a lifetime @Bri36

Doesn't mean much if we don't know who authored it.  However, I am sure are true and some aren't.   I'm still laughing over the chin thing...lol   That bathroom thing is common courtesy that we all use.  Isn't it?  No one with any manners announces that they are going to take dunk when they leave the dinner table...lol

I think it depends on if your English or not. I noticed when a President from days gone by and his wife was over there they didn't bow. Kiind of thought it was rude. Would had just been a thing of respect while visiting that country

Love the picture !!!  And btw I do not see anything wrong with the Royal rules, they just keeping the traditions of etiquette and proper respect to the monarch.

When Kate was in Norway recently she left her coat on indoors for lunch with the Crown Prince and Princess.

Cameras were present so it was considered a public engagement. Royal rules say it is "unladylike" for a woman to take her coat off in public. 😕
