I'm not a royalist but proud that the Royal family is still a big part of the UK's living, here and now history

The coronation today of King Charles III is just a continuing of history. UK is a more interesting country because of it not despite it

Don't like it, that's ok, as you can always follow the Kardashians
That is a good deal. I've contributed a bit with tours of Windsor, the Tower etc. So, do the royals live on their own money or a gov't grant? It seems that they earn alot from real estate and peripheral farming.

BTW is all the gold that I saw in the cathedral for real?
