I am really struck by the robust schedule of these two older people, the king and queen. It must be exhausting. They deserve every little bit of pampering that they get.
Well said
I think work/activity can keep you young. Tom Petty wrote, “if you never slow down you never get old.” Maybe it’s true? My husband is 73 and still works full time as an attorney and his band plays at least once every weekend, often twice, plus more during holiday seasons. He swims laps at least twice a week recently took a surfing trip around the world.
@@jpf77302well, he's lucky to be able to afford it. Some of the elderly have no choice but to retire; then struggle to survive with little money to eat, buy médication or pay for heating bills.

"Dangling like a pair of hamster's balls." Darling River, you slay me...
I know, River is the absolute best.
I have borrowed several Riverisms - he needs to copyright them. "Nonsense on stilts" is perhaps my favourite. 😂

Queen Camilla does not seek attention instead she gives support. Happy Birthday🎂🎂
Look at how the applause for Catherine, The Princess of Wales compared to Harry's disrespectful award!!!??
The Queen is beautiful!
The Princess of Wales?! Breathtaking CLASS AND BEAUTY!!
Harry and his first wife?
They've upset EVERYONE, including THE MOTHER of our HERO, Pat Tillman!!!!!!
Much love from northern Indiana ❤️
I am in NW Indiana!
@@tamarasmith2267 this Aussie totally agrees. Love from Williamstown Victoria
Well said 👏 😊
And Catherine did not need to have her husband there to claw, grope, push or pull, Now that is a 'strong, independent woman! 😍
Happy Birthday to Queen Camilla! I do like the Queen in white. She looked lovely.
Agree Totally White Is Her Color. But Then She Looks Good In Everything. Just Like C. P. O. W.
I think the Queen’s hair color looks gorgeous with the diamonds 💎 on the crown. Her eyes too!
I love all the crowns and beautiful uniforms and fashion of the Royal Family. Adds so much elegance to the British life.
I have been going through a rough time with my 89 year old Mother. When I see you have posted, I smile and jump up and down like a little girl. Thank you!❤😊❤
God bless you both💖🌱💞
Thank you from this little old lady in the USA for the explanation of the opening of parliament.
I've always been fascinated by the royal family and tradition. I'd love to visit some day.
You aren't the Little Old Lady of Pacedena are you by any chance?😄

Happy Birthday Queen Camilla🇺🇸
And from🇩🇰♥️
Oh my goodness Queen Camilla was absolutely ADORABLE when she was a wee girl ❤💖 /Happy birthday Camilla. The King George IV Diadem is stunning, just beautiful.
The bowl is stunning River 💕, as are all the brooches. All the pieces you found are lovely. I so enjoy Tip Jar Corner.
She looks wonderful in blue.
And doesn’t she look terrific in all these photos. Years younger.
A very Happy Birthday to Queen Camilla 🇺🇸
Happy birthday to all of us July people.
Queen Camilla is 14 days older than my husband.
Happy Birthday to all of you.🎉
Thank you .
July 1 here
July 29
She's a month older than me and I haven't half of her energy!
As a fellow Cancerian I totally agree about the excellence of the Sign - we are the guardians of emotion, lunatics to the end. The blue of your clothing today with all it’s intricacies is exquisite and so very elegant.
The best fruits in the basket . Tee hee! Xx
Good morning, River. I love that people feel overwhelmed with awe and emotion when they meet their Monarch. However, I wish they would not paw at the King and show such a lack of disrespect, forcing a hug, as if he is plain old Uncle Jim down at the pub.
Couldn't agree more. It's so distasteful and common.
Agreed. He’s the King,for goodness sake!
William and Catherine turns heads while Harry and Meghan turns people's stomachs 😂
Very good!
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
😅😄
Well said!❤
So true thanks for sharing 😊
Oh River! Thank you for sharing the incredible footage of the King and Queen going to parliament! As an American I find this thrilling, beautiful, interesting and you are the only youtube channel I watch that covered it! Happy Birthday to Queen Camilla.❤
Happy birthday to Camilla!!!!!!🫖🎂🧁🍥💞💞💞💞💞💞💞
Queen Camilla and my mother are the same age, 1947 was a great year!
6:30 Long live all us 47 babies. I’ve grown up regarding King Charles as a little brother, wondering if I’d ever see him becoming King. Now I’m hoping to see King William and Queen Catherine and George, Prince of Wales.🇦🇺🦘
@@MelodyeSartori I'm a 47 er too, born just after the war in London when things were still pretty grim.
Yes it was my mothers birth year too ❤
@@Lynda-vq5yl I can imagine they were. I visited London in 1973 and there were still areas that were not rebuilt. It really brought home to me the war stories I’d read and been told, much more than the history we were taught in school. We had a lot of immigrant children come into our school when I was 5 or 6. Our school was near one of the migrant hostels in Adelaide, so we had lots of European displaced persons telling us their stories. Quite chilling when one reflects back. I pray that it will never happen again.
@@MelodyeSartori We emigrated to Australia when I was two, £10 pommies. We had lived in very cramped housing in London, seven of us in a two-up, two-down house with no hope of getting anything better. I would have loved to grow up in London, but I loved Australia too.
You have such a whimsical way of presenting all your treasures when you do Tip Jar Corner, River. It's fantastic ❤
River, you are always the voice of reason-so young, so wise, so stylish!
Wow, my mother used to wear those dreadful flowered swimming caps! What memories that image brought back.
LOL 😂😂 My mother had one in orange 🍊
@@Drowsydoll2000 Mom had one for every color of swimsuit that she owned! Sadly, she passed away on Mother’s Day (US) this year, so I’ve been going through her home cleaning it out, and while I haven’t come across any bathing caps yet, I’m expecting to find one or two in the back of a drawer at some point. 😊
Oh no those caps were such a flamboyant touch, a bygone era. Fashion for women is far too sexless, androgynous nowadays. I rebel by wearing sweeping skirts and dangling earrings.
Even worse, we had to wear them as children, not the flowered ones thankfully!
for those of us having to wear them in school it was AWFUL
Dear Head Basketeer, I think your tip jar corner is perhaps your most revealing of your true self. You are showing us, a great bunch of mixed fruits, your personal passions. Vintage jewels, beautiful poetry, old books that hint at lovely lives lived well, and the odd bits of trinkets that amuse and are not necessarily to be worn, just owned for your own pleasure. Toodle Pip!
I absolutely love tip jar corner.
There are some real finds there! The shops near me don't have anything nearly as gorgeous as that jewellery, more's the pity. Shall look forward to seeing them worn!
I just love listening to your descriptions of your Tip Jar Corner finds. So soothing…
Had the day off day, River. I went to my favorite charity shop and bought a necklace to go with a new dress. Then I stopped at the library to pick up a couple of books. Came home and gave myself a pedicure, then did some gardening. Just finished your broadcast. I will read and tuck in for the night.
What a lovely day 🏵️
🎵 Oh , what a perfect day! 🎶
I love everything about this post!!! ❤
You'll never know how much I needed your soothing voice tonight, River- beautifully delivering these tender poems. You touch the heart, my dear.
Hamster's balls 😂😂😂😂
Ooo My.
River, I love the detailed information about the meanings behind ceremonial moments such as the Blackrod door knocking etc. It fills in the whole picture.
I love our traditions dating back centuries.
Lickity Spit!! I haven't heard that since I was a child by my teacher, who used the saying regularly!
I thought Camilla looked lovely on the photo taken by Catherine, who is a very good photographer. It is pretty, seeing Camilla at her best and so natural. I'm so happy King Charles has a good match with Camilla, they enjoy the same pursuits, gardening and walking, the Countryside is special to yhem. I wonder if our King still paints in Watercolour as he used to, he's very good. Hopefully his Summer break he will enjoy the time for themselves and the Family. I'm in awe of our King, he's undergoing cancer treatment yet he attends as much as his Dr's allow!
Lovely jewels River, you're gorgeous, love your channel. Thank you. 💖
Happy Birthday and best wishes to Queen Camilla today. 🎉
Hi River! Your charity shop finds are delightful. I always look forward to Tip Jar Corner.
Goodness She was a beautiful little girl Camilla, so sweet 💕 and innocent. The best picture I have ever seen of her.😊
Our Queen looking stunning again in blue. It seems all shades of blue are now designated * Royal Blue*
It makes me grin that some Americans protest at our Royal Family……..have you noticed how keen presidents are to involve members of their families. The names differ but the aims remain the same. One powerful family at the very head of it all.
Agree with you River, our vices are ours, never had a Nanny and certainty don't want a Nanny Government
We’ve gotten to the point where we’ve been trying to make people have to follow “healthy lifestyle guidelines”! Sadly , we should have protections for those that do want to continue their vices aside from others. People must want to stop vices not be governed into it !
😅@@vickihandel3620
@vickihandel3620 except that people's vices cost everyone else. Alcohol and drug abuse affect not just the user, but others around them. Smoking costs the health system a great deal and that money could be spent on illnesses that are not self-inflicted. These three substances are addictive so people need to be encouraged and supported to reduce use or quit.
@@GinaSeay-kn7xr I totally agree. I personally think smoking should be banned.
Listening to you reading poetry on this lovely summer evening was just enchanting.
I love seeing your thrift store finds! Thanks for sharing! 👍👋🌹🌸
Happy birthday Camilla from another Cancer!!! ❤❤❤❤
Cancer here as well!
I’m a Cancer also 😊
My birthday today, too!
Cancer here as well❤🇺🇸
@@SAW451it’s mine too! 717 🦀🦀🦀🦀
I cannot tell you how beautiful that was! At first, I thought you could sell ice to Alaska but then, you moved me with your poetry. My gosh River, you touched my soul.
River, your descriptions of your jewellery finds almost convince me they are genuine jewels, , . and I loved your reading of the poetry very much, thank you. Would love more of this.
River, thank you for showing me the wonderful traditions and ceremonies that are part of your country’s culture. It’s so grand and meaningful. I absolutely love it. I wish we had more culture in the US.
Agree Seems Most People Could Care Less About It. But I Love It.& Love Watching Other People's Culture.
Hello River. Started watching you a month ago and now I cannot quit! You are wonderful and I absolutely love the Kingdom! So smart you are and I so enjoy your show!
Oh River, I love your poetry reading and tip jar corner finds. So uplifting. Thanks.
Thank you for the lovely Tip Jar Corner.
Hamsters balls! Now I can't unsee it!! LOL!
😩
THANK YOU, River, for sharing the historical significance to these traditions. Im an american. I Love history, and the pageantry! 🎉
That diamond necklace Camilla wore!! OMGOODNESS they are as large as pebbles.
Gorgeous!
I love seeing the royal jewellery collection.
‘ Hamster balls’ 😂😂😂
River, you are a gem! Thank you for bringing joy and beauty to my life! I could listen to you reading poetry for hours!
Yes, I agree.😊
Hurrah - another tip jar corner. Love it 💍🥻👘🧣. Fabulous channel River - makes my day.
Australia - Annette 👄💄👑💍🏆
I always enjoy Tip Jar Corner, but you really outdid yourself with this month's treasures!! All of the jewelry was absolutely gorgeous!!
Lovely show tonight, River. My thanks. 💖
River, as I listen and knit up a storm, I am reminded of how much I enjoy poetry when read by one with a lovely tone and diction! Thank you so much, O Fruity One!
River, you look fabulous today! And as always a great broadcast. I loved your tip jar corner.
I tell you, a tiara REALLY suits Her Majesty! It really does! Not everyone can pull off the bigger ones, and she looks like she was BORN to wear them! As a fellow Cancerean, like you and the Queen, I can affirm it IS the best sign! We are a tough shell on the outside, and sweet and soft on the inside! 🦀 💕
she is on the cusp of Leo a very strong sign... best of both worlds
Another cancerian here, in fact I was born a few hours before our late Diana on July 1st, '61. Always wished I could have met my unofficial twin 🥰
River!! You look stunning today 🎉 I just sat down with my afternoon coffee ☕. I'm excited to hear what you have for us today! 🌹
Yes . And such a stunning tiara today . I love it . 👑👑💙💙
Good evening dearest River. Happy Birthday to Her Majesty. I hope she had the most wonderful of days. She looked beautiful as always. Looking forward to our group gathering and hearing all your fabulous facts and gossip. So onward we go!! ☝🏼xx
England must be such a place of beauty to inspire so many writers to compose such beautiful verses. As you read that last poem, River, I was reminded of "The Wind in the Willows." I'm 54, and I still enjoy listening to Michael Hordern narrating it. I've always wanted to visit, but alas, never have had the chance. Thank you so much for sharing!
I do hope you come here one day💖🌱💖
I hope you get the opportunity to visit us all here in the Kingdom. Come in late spring when absolutely everything is in bloom. 😊
Happy birthday from another fellow Cancerian: it's our time to shine! And the Queen looks marvelous!
I’ve always been a poetry lover, thanks to my precious mother, and used to own several old poetry collections much like your recent find. You’re a gem yourself, my dear! And a darned good reader of poetry.
Tip Jar Corner narration and background music are hypnotic River. You should consider doing a “Tip Jar Corner“ narration in long form as a sleep story. I am not saying it’s boring, I am saying it is calming
Queen Camilla looks beautiful!! Happy Birthday to the Queen!!
I always enjoy seeing your Tip Jar Corner! Loved your brooches!! I worked in Hospice for many years. I couldn't wear necklaces because my confused patients would pull on them. But, I discovered that I could wear a brooch!! The patients would lightly touch them, and talk to them. It gave me time to do what I needed to do while they were distracted. I still wear my lovely brooches even if I'm only wearing jeans and a T-shirt. Thanks for reading the poems as well and allowing me a walk down Memory Lane. You're the BEST!!!❤❤
That’s a fabulous idea! I’m in healthcare and will look into that!
So nice to see you on my birthday River! 🥳 Happy birthday to Queen Camilla! 👑🎈🎂
Happy birthday to you, Tammyfruit!🥙🎂🎂
@@sabrinazalar8667 LOL Thank you! 🥳
The metaphors of poetry. Divine. Thank you
River, this is an absolutely beautiful Royal video. Loved the vintage jewelry, Camilla’s birthday and your reading of the poems. Hurrah! Thank you so much
Dear River, this is your best outfit ever!!💖
Agree 100%that dress wow

Happy Birthday 🎉
Thank you, River. I truly enjoyed the poetry readings! 😍

I love seeing the royal jewellery collection.
‘ Hamster balls’ 😂😂.
That's funny! I was so busy gawking at the tiara I had to back it up to notice the necklace LOL
Guess who would be coventing these
@@greeniejeannie Me, too! The crown was perfect on her.
@@TDAEON I love her hair, so soft and pretty.
Again I'm dying with laughter over the Hamsters Balls! 😂 I so enjoy seeing the great thrift store finds that you so eloquently display. My favorite was the leaf brooch. Thank you sharing those with us!
Love the sheet music. It brought me back to my childhood piano lessons. I really love your channel.
Happy birthday to Queen Camilla! She and I share an 8th Great-Grandfather. She looks splendid and so regal. In my “Americanize” I say, “work it girl!”
A whole one out of 1024 ancestors in common. Aren't you special...🤭🤭
What an honor to be related to Her Majesty- whether a close relative or distant!
@@AlexandertheGreat99there was no need for that comment!
Thankyou for your entertaining channel. I love your sense of style and witty commentary ❤🌶
I can’t wait to see Prince William & Princess Catherine in the King & Queen crowns. She will be absolutely stunning in the diadem. ❤🇺🇸
I can wait. Charles is only a few years older than me and while I was never in the running as a mate I am happy to see him relaxed and supported by his chosen bride Queen Camilla. She is a star and William and Catherine need the time to nurture, protect and prepare their children for their futures. William and Catherine don't need to be in the top job now. Long live King Charles.
@christinac3929 Agree. I can wait. The longer William has his father guiding things - the less responsibility William has on his shoulders. The Prince can have a bit more time while young, dedicating his focus to his wife & growing children. 💜
Today is today! You may not have a tomorrow.
Be careful what you wish for. They have plenty of time. Let Charles enjoy his moment, after all, he did get blindsided with a cancer diagnosis.
I am not saying I want KC to die, I just can’t wait to see PW & PC in the crowns. Beautiful couple. Maybe 8-10 years. They will make a great King & Queen SOMEDAY.
Happy Birthday Her Majesty Queen Camilla!! 🥰. 🎂 🎉🇺🇸
Oh! I love the bowl!!! Gorgeous colors and I love all of the little birds!
I agree that the dangling bits on the crown should be made stationary.❤
Both King and Queen were resplendent today! I do see what you mean about those bouncing jewels ;0)
You have to do this kind of show more often so soothing
What?!? WTF is this smoking ban about? Not allowed to smoke outside pubs/cafes etc now? Or when? And of course it will include vaping too. Fuck that 😡
Love the bowl and how you look too ❤
Actually love all the tip jar items and thank you for the readings ❤
Wonderful broadcast River very interesting . Happy birthday queen Camilla . Love your jewellery section
Very well.put on the smoking issue I couldn't have said it better ❤ thank you for showing this beautiful ceremony .....btw you look fantastic as usual !
Oh I’m so pleased about tip-jar-corner. I was going to comment to ask because I’ve missed your fruity colour descriptions of gems you’ve found! 😊
I LOVED you reading the poetry. I could listen for hours. Thank you River 😊
I never noticed those dangling pearls, but now I can't stop seeing them. Their so random.
For better or worse, River has affected or imaginations😂😂😂❤❤❤
@@sylviekins River is so on point, love his broadcast. Hi from NZ.
Referring the the dangling pearls as “Hamsters balls”. Bah hahahaha 😂😂😂😂😂
That was hilarious! 😂 Love River’s sense of humor.
Im so glad to see Tip Jar corner again !! 🥳🥳🙌🙌 This one was extra enjoyable and i even saw my pink roses as you were reading The Last Rose of Summer. They look just like the Constance Spry's in my backyard . 🌺🌺🌺
Happy birthday HRH Camilla🎉
Beautiful birthday wishes, but she is addressed as Her Majesty not HRH.
Dear River what a wonderful tip jar corner...the Hymn to Diana was beautiful! ❤I love the bowl you picked out, and the turquoise Mandarin dress to. You read poetry beautifully, this was very special, thank you. ❤😊
Love hearing about and seeing your charity shop finds. Brilliant.
I do love your traditions. So wonderful to watch.
I‘m an English teacher in Germany and my students are all Royalists 😁😁😁
My darling River I do enjoy your visits so very much. Today was the 7th anniversary of my dear son’s passing. You do remind me of him very much. Your time with us all is such a true joy. Many blessings River. 🤗😍💋💋💋💋💋You look fabulous as always! I adore tip jar corner finds as well.
We have been together these years and I wanted to let you know how grateful I am to see every single video you grace us with. Even when I was in hospital for surgery you came along. 💗💗💗💗💗💗💗
River, After you mentioned it, all that I could fixate on was the “hamster ball” pearls in the crown; they really do need to be static.
Yes. They will never be ignored now Im aware of them .
I marvel at how Her Majesty transitions form "Country Girl" to the epitomé of regality as easily and as effectively as she does. One couldn't wish for a Queen with such natural Majesty in and on , all occasions. Very happy birthday to You Ma'am!!
You gave me an insight. True royally is like beautiful poetry, it fills our hearts and cherishes the beauty around us. ❤
The diadem is gorgeous!
You look rather ravishing in blue my dear River 💙 🇬🇧
I must write to the King. I love you River.❤
I’d forgotten how much I enjoyed the odd bit of poetry I used to read it to my children. You sparked my interest again. Thank you Rivey. ❤️💋💋
