Christ, she togged out during half time.

I think it was the Quality street comment a few pages back. She's reading boards on her phone in the car.

Typical, they're taking her through the gift shop first. She won't be let in till she buys something.

People arent allowed on the streets to gawk at her whether they wanted to or now. Jesus, do poeple still not get it?

Getting around town has been a massive inconvenience today, I'm not surprised it's a ghost town out there.

And anyway, who cares.

Does she really want to see the Book Of Kells? She probably reads stuff like that when shes on the can. Held by a servant presumably

LuckyGent88 · 17-05-2011 03:44PM

at least im getting a personal tour of trinity college out of this visit without leaving my living room.

Lady Chatterton · 17-05-2011 03:44PM

The Queen looks unimpressed with the Book of Kells.

Philip doing a fine job of pretending to be interested!

Colilfc · 17-05-2011 03:45PM

Prince Philly having the laugh there.

Fago! · 17-05-2011 03:45PM

Haha judging by the ok on her face, I'd say she's just thinking "shut up about that book mr library man, you bore me"

She looks so bored.

Xivilai · 17-05-2011 03:45PM

She hasn't smiled in a while

homer simpson · 17-05-2011 03:46PM

Is it just me or does she really look disinterested, and not want to be there??? A bit disrespectful.

Vudgie · 17-05-2011 03:46PM

They took her through the gift shop, she might buy a few key rings or book marks!

Dunny · 17-05-2011 03:46PM

Philip not even looking at the book! They shoulda just sent him on his own, gas.:D

We're not all bitter begrudgers like yourself good sir.

Quite the contrary... I've never seen a set up here before where the whole city is shut down for a state visit and where ordinary people can't see the visiting dignitary...

hondasam · 17-05-2011 03:46PM

Me and my neighbors gave her a cheer as she drove down the Naas Road past our estate just after she left Baldonnel,she gave us a wave back!

Mint Sauce · 17-05-2011 03:46PM

I think Phillip just said something stupid.

For some of us it is not 'history'. What is so hard to understand about that?

I understand that, and everyone is entittled to their opinon, this is history in the making as well.

baldbear · 17-05-2011 03:47PM

Did i just lip read the queen say "This is a bit sh*t"

Fago! · 17-05-2011 03:47PM

Why cant the cameras see the real book?

Vinta81 · 17-05-2011 03:47PM

mikemac · 17-05-2011 03:47PM

That's an impressive library

I've never been in Trinity, getting a tour as I sit on my couch

Interestingly, it's was like a ghost town here in Rebel Enniscorthy earlier - I wonder why there was hardly a person on the streets?

No onlookers being allowed near her in case of random custard pies and/or paint being thrown. Not counting anything more sinister. In addition anyone who doesn't want to see her will stay from the traffic nightmare that is everywhere else in the city.

Remember that rubber republican who threw paint over a Govt minister last year? I agree with the sentiment but the woman was still a minister of our national govt, you can disrespect the person but should maintain respect for the post.

She's wondering how her plunderers didn't get it for the V&A.... would look well beside Elgin's Marbles and the other stolen goods.:D
