Re: Who would you rather.......

Ummmm, none of them. And I'm quite sure they would feel the same about me. A friend of mine who teaches high school history says he'd like to meet the Queen, because he'd like to hear about her experiences during WWII.

Meet?  Nope.
They're just people who get up every morning...just like I do.

Lots of people in the news I have an opinion about...

but wouldn't cross the street to meet them. 🤷‍♀️

Re: Who would you rather.......

Of course the Queen.  But I would love to sit and have a real chat with Charles.  I would like to ask him what is like to be standing by for all these years.  What has he tried to accomplish and what are his goals for the future. What does he do to make sure he is ready and informed at any moment to take the job ahead. 

 

I would love to hear about his experiences with organic gardening, and about the polo ponies and if he still rides in many parades and ceremonies.

@Nancy Drew: You're right about that! Smiley Tongue LOL 

By the way, I think I'd rather meet the Queen.

@deepwaterdotter  The Queen no longer has Corgi's.  They have all passed.

 

She only has two Dorgi's.

 

I think I would prefer to meet the dogs too.

Out of the whole group if I had to chose it would be Harry and Meghan.  Have no interest in the rest of them.

Re: Who would you rather.......

From a historical perspective, I would choose Queen Elizabeth. I'd like to hear her memories of growing up in the pre-war years and then hear about the WWII years....memories of Winston Churchill, her involvement (and that of the Royal family) in helping with the war effort, e.g., what they did, the roles they took on, etc. I can only imagine the memories she has.

Re: Who would you rather.......

I am intrigued by the Royal Family.  No one does pomp and ceremony any better, IMO.  However, I find it a bit offensive the way they have married relatives in the not to distant past.  That said, Her Majesty will probably rule until she is no longer able or she passes.  

I think meeting Kate would be nice.  She seems like such a lovely young woman and a great addition to the "firm".  I also think Harry would be very down to earth.
