I think the brain is like any muscle in the respect that; if you don't exercise it; you don't develop it.
Queen may be a gonner already, or very close to it

Random mutations of the genotype, innit?
Having engaged all 3 professionally, Liz & Phil (and I’m no rabid monarchist - she used to look at me like I’d popped me stinky toy out. So did he, but he at least saw the funny side) are/were defo sharp, whereas #1 son defo isn’t. I’m not alone with that ‘analysis’ - Brenda’s pushing the gurning cretin on CHOGMs so he inherits her role (as it’s an accident of history, rather than nailed down).
The last CHOGM I was at, 3 HOGs - one AsiaPac, one African & one Caribbean were giggling like naughty schoolboys at the HOG Reception while an Oz diplomat did a PC-cum-Forrest Gump impression.
He’s a joke.

Actually yes, you’re correct, it would have been a fourteen year old boy who was this “world leader” in that instance.
He’d have had power of veto over laws and as previously mentioned the armed forces and police would have sworn allegiance to him.
I have nothing against these people, and what happened to him and his brother was a tragedy that no child should have to go through, I know other who have suffered the same, it’s the office that is anachronistic, at best.
Well, yes.
So involved ........if you don't like it just ignore the Monarchy. Why spend your time so involved in it.
Move on.
Is she your Queen?
If not why do you care?
Yet here you are.
If you don't like it. And it does affect you just move on with your life.
Yes she is

We are going to have to get new bank notes with Chuck on it when she’s gone?

Queen Camilla doesn’t sound right - I wonder if she’s got a proper middle name like Mary or Anne. Or even Charlotte or Caroline. Will she be Queen or something like King’s Consort?
And I suppose we’ll get a new Prince of Wales - joy unbounded.

Frans Steyn, Prince of Wales has a nice ring to it.

Why are you so permanently disgruntled? I picture you as this grumpy old man shouting at kids all the time.

Eleanor or Matilda would work nicely.
