El Lizard Birth Has New Pimped Out Ride
Source: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-27690992
"The Queen will travel to the State Opening of Parliament in a new state carriage celebrating hundreds of years of the nation's history.
Fragments of Henry VIII's warship the Mary Rose, Sir Isaac Newton's apple tree and Westminster Abbey are just some of the priceless artefacts incorporated into the bodywork of the carriage being used by the monarch for the first time.
The handrails inside the Diamond Jubilee state coach are made from Royal Yacht Britannia timber, and a wooden crown covered in gold leaf was carved from oak from Nelson's flagship HMS Victory.
Carriage maker Jim Frecklington tells the story of the Queen's new state coach. (click link for embedded video)."
That's right folks. Today is the queen's speech and will be the last one of the current British parliament. (Interesting the BBC reports that as a given....wonder why lol). Liz Windsor will ride out to meet the blinkered adoring masses in her brand spanking new war chariot, embossed with gold and containing many priceless items that seek to justify our money as a [celebration] "of our nations' history".
Hopefully for El Lizard Birth, Jimbo will have made it bullet proof, lest she might survive a venture out into the peasantry who amidst increasing unrest will be far more likely to pop a cap in her scaly backside.
Dance Liz.
