Oh, To Be Queen for This Day!

In the sea of faces surrounding the Queen, you will see one smirker. Closer inspection of the photo will reveal why.



This Is London 'uncovered' a Brit with a far from stiff upper lip.

In his cap, jacket and spats, his hands on his knees and his ankles crossed, he sat proudly in the front row of the 1st Battalion of the Argyll and Sutherland Highlanders, next to the Queen.

But unlike his comrades, he hadn't taken the time to adjust his sporran and kilt for decency.

So the kilt flapped about for all the world to see. And judging by the grin on his face, the colonel knew exactly what he was doing.

Onlookers said the Queen didn't notice what was happening next to her. But she does not exactly appear comfortable in the photograph.

Um, yeah, she knew something was 'up'.
