The Royal Channel

I love the way the Royal Family appears to adhere to tradition and still be a trend setter. Despite being saddled with ancient traditions and protocol, back in the late 1700s they were the first of British families to bring a Christmas tree indoors from the outdoors and decorate it lavishly. The Queen's crown includes 4 pearls from Queen Elizabeth I's crown. Now that is history.

But time doesn't stand still.

The Monarchy has launched The Royal Channel, their very own YouTube Channel. You can watch all the Christmas Day messages (including this year which will go up as soon as it is broadcast live).

Her Majesty is so hip!

What would you ask?

Sebastian goes to St George's School in Windsor which is the choir school for St George's Chapel which is the church (Church of England)for Windsor Castle. Boys from the school can start singing in the choir at the age of 8. Needless to say, the Royal Family plays quite a prominent role in the discussions of the school. Whilst in Nursery, Seb actually thought the castle was his. He has grown out of this.

Tonight during dinner, we were talking about what would you ask the Queen if you met her. Marc and I looked absolutely blank. Without missing a beat Seb responded, "I'd ask her if I could be a knight."

Good question! What would you ask?
