Elizabeth

So I came to watch today the episode of "All Creatures Great and Small" where the Coronation happens.

If you wanted to - you could find the video on the British Monarchy Web site.

Siegfried has rented a television set for the occasion but as the final moment unfolds everyone has departed. He is busy delivering a calf and after that he pulls out a bottle of champagne to toast the new Queen.

It is a new Elizabethan age.

My second name is Elizabeth. She was not yet Queen when I was born.

My mom was Betty - but not Elizabeth.

My grandmother was Elizabeth and her friends called her Lily.

So there we are - 3 generations of Elizabeth.
