If you missed the Queen’s Christmas Message for 2011, it is really worth watching to the end!
Updated for Corrections!
I was left a comment correcting me that the Queen is not technically, “The Queen of England,” as she was not crowned the, “Queen of England.” This is true she was not crowned, “The Queen of England.” Yet I do think many of us loving think of her that way. So I have corrected my post and thought I would also point out that even though she was not crowned many of the titles she has been given to this date her titles do seem to evolve with time and political change. Sadly, “The Queen of England,” is still not an official title, I have never claimed to be official I am actually much more of a relaxed kind of girl but who am I to ignore pomp and cicumstance so with out further adieu here is a list of her official titles (According to Wikipedia.)
