Youcannow: Crown estates are owned by the Queen, so I don’t see the difference, apart from the commercial aspect.
But not if the Monarchy were to be abolished.handshake

Maybe England will then learn to be more inclusive when that happens.

And now we'll have another couple of days forced out of work in the midst of an inflation crisis. A year when all public holidays should be scrapped.

I don’t understand your point .
Are you saying that being exclusive is worse than being inclusive?

Tiger_Moth: Hi Geno


Her Majesty the Queen has plenty of royal residences up and down the UK, but there are two of them which stand out. Both Balmoral Castle and the Sandringham Estate are privately owned by the monarch making them extra special. All the others are owned by Crown Estates.
Hi Tiger ..
I meant back in the day when they were first built.
I watched a documentary that reckoned it was to do with the stink from human waste. No sanitary facilities at the time.
They moved around from castle to castle so that they could be cleaned.
Seems legit dunno

Fancy undermining the war effort at a time like this, recovering from the pandemic is a war. There should be no public holidays when people are dying from a lack of goods and services.

That's one reason.lol

The facts are that in the middle ages there were many feudal wars and castles were built to protect the Lords and their lands. Around 1500 at a rough estimate,some long gone now though.

Of course the Queen will always be represented but you haven't looked that hard as there is always another person on the back of our notes depending on who has been selected. For instance Alan Turing is the representative of the £50 note.

Polymer is used for notes now not paper.
