The secret to a blissful marriage is separate bathrooms and bedrooms!

@petesmith9472 2 года назад

We’ve always had separate bathrooms…it’s not a luxury, it’s a gift for each other.

@mallardcutter7209 2 года назад

That’s absolutely true !

@yodudeHQ Год назад

Apparently it’s a lot more common than a lot of people think, especially amongst the upper classes

@bl7355 Год назад

There is a lot to be said for this, particularly for shift workers 😄

@TommyNewnes 3 года назад

That is a pretty common royal thing for the king and queen (or queen and prince in this case) to sleep in separate bedrooms. It is actually a great idea that I plan to implement in my own home when I start building. It is for 2 busy people, so you don't wake the other person when coming to bed late, or needing to get up early in the morning. It doesn't mean they will always sleep separately, they just have the option.

Those Corgi-plushies all over the place are a nice touch - and just adorable. And in addition a convenient way of getting close-to-accurate without having actual dogs aboard at all times and all the hassle that would come with that.

@ulizez89 Год назад

I was waiting for them to mention the corgis! But alas, it was meant for the comment section!

@peachygal4153 Год назад

Lol they sold corgi key chains at Windsor Castle when we toured there. My daughter collects key chains, so she got one. they also sold the plushies.

@mrpeel3239 2 года назад

I toured her in '99. A national treasure. No wonder HM shed tears at the decommissioning. Ps was told this is the only place where the Queen's private loo on public display!

@hellerjerry 4 года назад

such a great tour thanks for taking us along The Queen came here to Chicago on her Great Lakes tour. Only stayed a few hours, had dinner with city and state officials, broke a tooth and had to find a local dentist that was still in his office, and sailed away. Big argument later bewteen city and state as to who was going to pick up the tab for the dinner.

@margi9103 Год назад

I was in the UK in 2012. We toured the Royal Yacht Britannia when we were in Scotland. It has a tea room on board for light lunches and afternoon tea. We had lunch on board to soak up the atmosphere and say we had a meal on board.

@briananthony4044 2 года назад

All it needed was an upgrade to a diesel electric drive, like they did to the QE2. That would have cut fuel usage and crew numbers substantially. Plus upgrade the bridge to modern standards. Sleeping accommodation was tight, but no more so than in a submarine. But crew day facilities seemed lovely.

@irenedavo3768 2 года назад

All RN ships onboard have laundry facilities run by locally employed Chinese from Hong Kong, they are not pubs on board they were WO & CPO , Petty Officer and Junior rates messes. The messdecks are quite spacious compared to a Frigates or Destroyers. When afloat she was always accompanied by a warship, known as RY Guardship..
