Queen Replies to Young Schoolgirl's Letter

The Queen has replied to a schoolgirl who was so upset about the murder of Lee Rigby that she wrote a letter to the monarch asking for a national day of mourning.

The 87-year-old royal thanked Millie Garland, 11, for "sharing her concerns" and said that she would pass on her request to Prime Minister David Cameron.

The youngster sent the letter to Buckingham Palace after watching a bulletin on the sentencing of Michael Adebolajo and Michael Adebowale, explaining that she was upset that Fusilier Rigby's son "would not have a dad anymore" and that something needed to "get done".Click link for full post from Hello Magazine.

Queen of Jewelry

Brooches, usually worn on the left shoulder, were a favourite for the royal and the Queen was believed to have over 100 in her collection. A selection that would go with an outfit were presented to her - usually three at a time - by her senior dresser and confidante Angela Kelly on special trays that once belonged to Queen Mary. The royal had a wide variety of different brooches which she often wore with her usual pearl earrings and necklace, including a spray of flowers brooch by the people and government of Australia during her Coronation tour of 1954./
