The English queen is 90 years old today.

















Queen Elizabeth 2. is celebrating her 90th. birthday in London today.
I just heard on the radio that she is the Queen of 16 countries .

A little bit private this, but down in our little wine cellar we have a notice board where I have put up some postcards. So, today I thought it was the day to show you two pictures of Queen Elizabeth, looking after our bottles.

Anyway, she is still working at the age of 90, and I find that quite amazing!


I will tell you two Norwegian secrets.

1) Take a look at this : https://translate.google.com/translate?sl=no&tl=en&js=y&prev=_t&hl=en&ie=UTF-8&u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.aftenposten.no%2Fbolig_old%2FDerfor-henger-kongefamilien-pa-utedassen-7154261.html&edit-text=

2) Our Queen Sonja, actually worked in "The Eagle" pub in Cambridge, as a young student.

Perhaps we should add her to the wall of famous wine keepers too?

I might take a little drink and say "Cheers" to the Queen a bit later.

    Thanks for the Norwegian secrets... the second more than the first!

    Queen Elizabeth remains the Queen of Canada as well... an arrangement that I rather like.
