Queen Elizabeth visits UK's largest warship, as it set sails for South China Sea

Britain's Queen Elizabeth visited the country's new aircraft carrier on Saturday, giving the UK's biggest warship a royal sendoff before it leads a flotilla of British, US and Dutch ships to Asian waters on its maiden operational voyage.

The 95-year-old monarch stepped aboard the HMS Queen Elizabeth in Portsmouth, seven years after she named the vessel alongside her late husband Prince Philip, who died last month.

I have now found out that my ornamental peach tree named "Elizabeth" is not only ornamental, but will have real peaches.

Lol how funny I was remembering those fun days too such community spirit we had a lovely time we can make up for all the celebrations we have had to miss in one big party for days

I saw street parties in 2012 , too, although; the weather was funny in my area. I'm sure there was a stronger community spirit in 1972.

Yesterday I have visited my peach tree "Elizabeth" again.
It is doing fine.
Maybe I could say: "She is doing fine!" as I really see the Queen in her somehow!

Btw: I do not want to open a political discussion.
I only want to say that I think this is not good personal style.
The Queen is not involved in politics - she is not guilty in anything political.
