God Save The Queen

On this day Her Majesty The Queen surpasses Queen Victoria to become Britain's longest reigning monarch. May God grant Her many (more) years!

It appears she has pretty good teeth for a Brit, especially one as old as she is.

There is a story that a few years back it was decided that they needed a new official portrait of HM as the most recent had become a bit dated. The Queen was more than happy to sit for a new portrait and when the time came the young artist was duly introduced to his sovereign. Being a bit overawed at the subject of his artistic skills he laid it on a bit thick with the compliments on the Queen's appearance, radiance and continued youthful appearance etc. Through it all Her Majesty just smiled politely. Finally the artist told the Queen to just sit still and smile, at which point she replied...

"With teeth, or without?"

Hope her son and husband find work.
