Good friends never say goodbye they simply say,
“see you again next year”
A MESSAGE FROM HER MAJESTY QUEEN VICTORIA
I wish you well during this challenging time and hope everyone keeps safe!
We must do what we can to protect ourselves, as we all must. Good luck to
all those being badly affected by events.
It's a very worrying time for us. I hope you are all in good health, and the
Coronavirus pandemic will soon be over.
Stay healthy and we'll get through this together.
My heart hurts about how people are suffering now, so please stay safe and
well.
Albert and I send our thoughts and prayers to all my subjects in Llandrindod
Wells and we wish you all the best and please stay healthy.
This is going to be a challenging time for everyone but we must all do what
we can to help each other through this.
Hopefully the steps in place will help. I wish you all good health; my prayers
are with you all.
Let us pray all this coronavirus pandemic ends soon.
I look forward to being with you all again at our 40th anniversary in 2021, or
even earlier on 24thMay 2021 for my birthday if conditions permit.
I sincerely hope that the situation in the world will improve soon.
Take care of yourselves and stay healthy.
