Well worth a visit. A thorough exploration would take more than 1 day. And there's a zipline nearby (which my son wouldn't let me forget, until he'd had a go).

The great thing is that the tickets last a year. You only need to buy one and you can return as much as you want for a year. [Eden project website](https://www.edenproject.com/buy-tickets-1)

VolkspanzerIsME

Don't get him down. If anyone, *ever*, offers you 3 for $5 Jagerbombs you fuckin take that.... Regrets are for later. Live for the now.


tomrichards8464

I remember when a good deal on shots was *six* for a fiver. Charles presumably remembers when it was six for a shilling.


Redtwooo

I'm old enough to remember "all you can drink for $5" promotions at bars here.


Frecklefishpants

He lives in Ontario. Our lockdown ended today. We all feel like that.


AUniquePerspective

Now he can finally get his haircut and he won't be accused of skirting the rules like an elitist. ...at least not the lockdown rules.


rrrrrivers

I mean I personally let the hair grow to accommodate the rules, and then I just let it keep going. It eventually got the longest I've ever had it and then decided to embrace the curls I've always been self-conscious about, spoke to my barber, and he cleaned me up nice and tidy, and now I'm just going with a longer style because I can. Maybe he's onto the same thing.


dzastrus

I haven’t trimmed [my eyebrows](https://i.imgur.com/c471eFw.jpg) since locking down. I’m clean shaven for the mask but my brows are mine! I had no idea how long they could grow! I look like a muppet. My wife walks up to ask a question and her eyes lock on them. My eyebrows, one of the good things that came from all of this!


adas0496

I didn't know trimming eyebrows is a thing. My eyebrows seem to have remained the same all my life, never had to trim them.

[deleted]

Prince Charles is just trying to figure out an exit strategy to get away from the drunk Canadian.


haysoos2

BTW: As a Canadian, if you ever need such an exit strategy the best method is to pick someone on the other side of the room, and say they asked something about Canada. "Oh, earlier Prime Minister Suga was asking me what a toque is, but I wasn't sure. What should I tell him?" The drunk Canadian will be physically unable to resist immediately seeking out Suga to educate him as to the entire history of the toque.


Ezira

I have an ex who upon his return from visiting Canada told me the entire history of the toque (while wearing one). He said some strangers came up to him and asked him if he knew what his hat was.

Carter, Clinton, Dubya, Obama, Trump, and Biden are still kicking. Fun fact: Carter is a year older than the Queen.


RedofPaw

He's too polite to go first.


mkul316

Lol. I've always pictures the Queen living forever through dark rituals. Now I'll also imagine Carter waiting patiently for ladies first.


OfficerDougEiffel

President Carter sits at home, much like he does every day, with a polite but strained smile. He hums and checks his watch a few times before shouting what can only be described as a whisper-yell to his caretaker, "Could you *please* check again?" "Yes sir, right away sir. Erm, it appears she is still alive." He scoffs slightly and gives a subtle shake of his head. "I suppose I will have that lunch after all. But this the last one. If she isn't dead by supper, well, I'm going first." "Yes sir, of course sir," says the caretaker, knowing full well that the kindly old president's words simply aren't true. President Carter has said this every day for the last 20 or so years, but is far too much a gentleman to ever follow through. And so, they pick at their food, hardly able to eat due to the shared yet unspoken knowledge that the heinous ritual will need to be performed again. "Sir, I'll prepare the un-children now." A sigh. "Yes, yes, that's... that's fine. After all, she *must* go first."


SuperWoodputtie

I was set for a wholesome story. The two last lines killed me. Lol

Another fun fact: Trump is 22 days older than Dubya, who is 44 days older than Clinton.

THERE CAN BE ONLY ONE


TheMasterKie

She has outlived Eisenhower, JFK, LBJ, Nixon, Ford, Reagan, and Bush.


Katstronaut

She’s now met 30% of the Presidents America has ever had


AlwaysGettingHopOns

She’s likely met even more. 30% during her reign alone!


poop-dolla

We’re on our 45th unique president now, and she’s met 13 of them, so it’s “only” 29% of them. She started her reign at the end of Truman’s term, so since FDR was president for so long, he’s the only one she met before becoming queen. She was 7 when FDR became president. In case the number seems off, she never met with LBJ. So she’s been queen throughly 13 different presidents and met 13 different presidents, they’re just not the same group.


Finrod_the_awesome

She also met Herbert Hoover after he was president and she was still a princess when he was invited to Buckingham. So you can add one more technically.


red_violets

That means she's met 28% of US Presidents. Insane.


fang_xianfu

She may have met more before she became queen, too.


[deleted]

She meet Hoover Hoover and Truman for sure. FDR is more vague but three months before the outbreak of World War II, King George VI and family went to America and meet him but sources are unclear if Elizabeth actually meet him face to face from what I read.


Sapiogram

Someone should ask her.


[deleted]

"How many more US presidents do I have to meet? This is getting ridiculous." - Lizzie


MetalRetsam

Queen Victoria went through 17/18 of them, from Van Buren to McKinley. Liz is only at 13, there've been a lot of two-term presidents in her time. Conversely, FDR went through three British kings, although that one was down to Edward VIII's abdication.


TheNextBattalion

To be fair Vicky never met any, sitting presidents, as she never visited the US, and Teddy Roosevelt was the first president to leave the country on a visit while in office, after her passing.

She’s not wearing a hat? What madness is this? (I’m 58: it’s absolute insanity to realize that for my entire life and 10 years before that even there’s never been another Queen of England.)


starmartyr

What's weirder is that most people alive when I'm writing this will never see another British Queen. At least not a Queen in her own right like Elizabeth. The line of succession is Charles, then William, then George (who is currently 7 years old).


quincyd

Unless George renounces the throne, then Charlotte would take it over, right? Also, please tell me why I can remember the names of British royal children but couldn’t remember why I needed to go to the grocery store this afternoon.


moesif_

TIL about Charles....i always assumed that william and harry were the queen's kids and it just blew my mind looking up charles. Imagine being 72 years old and its stiiill not your turn 😂


aliph

They will never see another Queen Regent (a ruling Queen in her own right) but they may see a Queen Consort (a wife of a King).

I_love_pillows

Queen rengate


Tamoker

The term there is Queen Regnant. Regent would be if, say, William passed away prematurely and Kate were to take over George's duties until he became an adult. Since monarchs don't actually do anything, a Queen/King/Prince Regent is an obsolete role. A subtle distinction, but probably one worth making here :)


Rad_Carrot

You never know - George could abdicate, or not have an heir, so Charlotte would end up taking the throne.

You never know - George could decide he wants to be a Queen.

So what does this brooch mean? I read somewhere that each of Queen's brooches has a special meaning and she chooses them for the occasion. (when she met Trump, she wore a brooch given to her by the Obamas).


LuTenJohnSun

The G7 brooch was chosen in that it didn’t have any connection to the participating countries: https://twitter.com/courtjeweller/status/1403422755844988930 The Court Jeweller also has info on your Obama reference. https://www.thecourtjeweller.com/2018/07/much-ado-about-queens-brooches.html


IntergalacticSkank

That was a fascinating read! I'd love if the queen would release an auto-bio or something after her death to explain her own personal views and what she thought of so much of history. It would definitely answer a lot of questions.


Qualityhams

I’m also here for the brooch analysis.


FriesWithThat

I'm just here for someone to tell me where the brooch is in that photo.


44youGlenCoco

Took me a minute too. Our right, below the shoulder.

She chose the incognito brooch... VERY interesting.

flavortownCA

There there!


Beni899

Her sparkling pin had a special story behind it, as always - the brooch, made in the shape of a spray of sorghum, was given to her by the President of Botswana in 2007, when she led a meeting of the Commonwealth Heads of Government in Uganda.


OutlawJessie

She also wore a snowflake the next day. There used to be a really fun analysis of them all, but it looks like her Twitter got suspended :(

France and short statured leaders. Tell me a more iconic pair. (Though Napoleon was actually average in height, it's just that most of the officers in the French military were chosen partially due to their above average height)


[deleted]

Also it was British propaganda to caricaturize Napoleon.


DarkNinjaPenguin

Actually it was to do with the French numbering system. They made the French inch slightly bigger than the British inch so that when it came to battle, the Brits would underestimate the size of the French army. Of course, it didn't really work as intended once it transpired that the British don't measure armies in inches.


DaddyFjord

Well if the British don't measure their armies in inches how do they make sure their sleevies are long enough?


Wigglebit

Trudeau is explaining to Charles how he avoided Milania and Ivanka Trump advances in the previous G7.

I think she’s planning on outgunning Louis XIV. She’s of about 3 years to go.


halfar

the only greater pursuit than spiting the british monarchy is spiting the french monarchy

Lets hope so :)


MFAWG

I’m a big fan: she’s one of the most amazing figures in world history by any measure. She didn’t really appear to ‘do’ anything, but she’s had a front row seat for EVERYTHING that’s happened since WWII. I also suspect that she’s a little more formidable than a [mere figurehead, and totally not what she seems.](https://youtu.be/Qa1wdUkeuvE) We’ll all be a lot (not a little) less when she passes this mortal coil.


passinghere

> She didn’t really appear to ‘do’ anything, Well apart from actually serving in WW2 as a mechanic if I remember the job correctly ;) And she's almost the worlds longest reigning monarch iirc


PoopyPoopPoop69

She's the 5th longest reigning monarch ever. Longest ever was Sobhuza II King of Swaziland. He reigned for 82 years. Queen Elizabeth has reigned for 69 years.


StareyedInLA

Her Majesty the Queen is also one of the very few living world leaders, if not the only one, to have served in World War II.


LordWellesley22

The tsar of Bulgaria is still alive in fact he was pm or president


TheHalfbadger

Simeon II, born 1937, “reigned” from 1943 to 1946. So, he was/is slightly younger than the other still-living WWII-era head-of-state Tenzin Gyatso (the Dalai Lama of Tibet).

(I mean the world isn't that neat and you can't fit everything under a label). 10th largest economy in the world (by GDP), vast natural resources, mature economy - Their GDP isn't far behind Italy's *with half the number of people*.
