I've thoroughly enjoyed Limmy's trolling on Twitter about the Queen's demise today.

Prince Philip looks awful in the photo on the BBC news article.

All security and train was waiting for her and wernt stood down. Then all of a sudden they both got a cold. It was a security threat so made up story saying they both had colds. Some may believe it but some are not stupid.
Merry Christmas too the royals |

If the Queen and Prince Philip's cold has been anything like the one I've had for the last week then I don't blame her. If I had a choice I wouldn't have travelled anywhere or seen anyone. As it is I've spent the last 4 days trying to be enthusiastic about presents, eating, drinking and making small talk while inside I've felt like death and just wanted to go to bed. Now I've got a 3 - 4 hour drive home tomorrow before another lot of guests arrive on Tuesday and a further lot on Friday. The good news is that I felt relatively ok for about an hour around midday but now my symptoms seem to be starting up all over again.

![]() Judging by her personality, she would have surely attended the service and then headed to bed if she left a bit rough. Her inner circle would understand, it's the general public who need to see the usual routine and feel reassured. So I suspect we are being lied to and she is quite ill. Let's hope she and her husband pull through. |

I think should step down as her tole as Queen as it is obvious she is not well enough to do her duties anymore. Also she deserves to be relaxing in her old age instead of going all over the place opening new buildings.
There have been other countries who have had their head of state step down from their role and let their son take over like the Netherlands and Spain. I dont know why the Queen cant do the same |

I dont know why the Queen cant do the same Over the years, she has said that her Vows are unbreakable and she wishes to honour them "for the whole of her life" Some, or many, of Her day to day 'Duties' can be amended or delegated to allow that, as circumstances dictate. I see no problem, just an unwanted interest by many outsiders to micro-manage someone else's life. (including me by just commenting on this thread) |

She hasn't been seen for 10 days now... I'm beginning to fear that "a heavy cold" might be a euphemism...
Wouldn't she have had the flu jab?

Isn't there any proof that the flu jab actually save lives? I seem to remember one year when they apparently predicted the wrong strains of flu virus so it was as useful as a chocolate fire guard
![]() maybe the Queen should do what the Japanese do and start wearing a surgical face mask, in addition to the usual gloves, to avoid catching germs

I've had the flu jab but I've still had a stinking cold which has lasted since the beginning of December and has now taken root in my sinuses. The flu jab is not effective against colds.

Wouldn't she have had the flu jab?"It's not the same as the common cold. Flu is caused by a different group of viruses and the symptoms tend to start more suddenly, be more severe and last longer." http://www.nhs.uk/conditions/flu/Pag...roduction.aspx |

Dying in 2016 is so 'common', there's no way she's going to be part of it.

Wouldn't she have had the flu jab?I think if she were seriously ill they'd have her in a hospital by now and it would be near impossible to keep that quiet. They didn't do so with Philip. |

Maybe her and Phil have got friends and family round and are playing Charades, Sardines and tinkiling on the old Joanna with "Knees Up Mother Brown" and "Doing the Lambeth Walk"
As is traditional at this time of year. |

Has she even had any engagements over Christmas to miss? I'm not sure she has other than the service. Does she normally do anything on New Years day?
