Happy Birthday HRH Queen Elizabeth II

It is the Queen's Birthday long weekend here in Australia. It isn't actually Her Madge's real birthday but it is the weekend we celebrate it.

Below are some images showing the Queen in her prime.

RIP Dame Elizabeth Rosemond "Liz" Taylor, DBE (February 27, 1932 – March 23, 2011)












Elizabeth Taylor quotes from Hollywood’s classic beauty: 

“I adore wearing gems, but not because they are mine. You can’t possess radiance, you can only admire it.”

“It’s not the having, it’s the getting.”

 “I’m a survivor – a living example of what people can go through and survive."

 “When people say, ‘She’s got everything’, I’ve got one answer – I haven’t had tomorrow.”

“Success is a great deodorant. It takes away all your past smells.”
