We always knew her Majesty had a sense of humour. Queen's Tale: from an old Scots Guard:__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________I I was on Guard of Honour, waiting for the King of Saudi Arabia, on Horseguards.Right flank: Scots Guard (100 guardsmen), a gap, then HM Queen, mounted and in uniform, along side Colonel Gerald, a gap, then left flank was the Queens Company Grenadier Guards (100 guardsmen).
We are stood at ease waiting. Colonel Gerald’s charger erupted with horse farts... full volume for two minutes.
Colonel Gerald says “Sorry about that your Majesty!”
She replies, in a wonderful voice “That’s alright Gerald, I thought it was your horse!”
200 guardsmen silently cried with laughter, and tapped their rifle butts on the gravel. From that moment, every man there adored her!
