I feel that I must intervene here because posters seem to be misconstruing my interest here.
I want to see a clear pic of those two brooches as worn by the Queen - twice actually - on 28 May.
It's a picture. Right? Two pictures, actually,
At no point have I disputed what the brooches might be.
At the start I said "At this stage I assume they are both regimental badge brooches but cannot be certain of course. "
(Often the Queen wears one badge brooch with a normal brooch).
Clearly I should never have said I was not certain.
And I should have named the two regiments, or divisions, or whatever the military term is that identifies them correctly.
But I still hope for (two) good pics - one in the blue outfit and the other in the strong pink outfit.
I am guessing now - guessing - that the Queen wore two different colours to honour the Blues and Royals and the Life Guards. (That's two and not three.)
Yes - I am getting a bit irritated over things read into postings which were never stated in the postings or intended.
Whew! Over it!
Perhaps the problem is that posters exchange with each other in a number of other placees over the jewels and the contexts of many places of exchange get muddled together, and mess up the story here?
