The Trappings of Monarchy

"Once you touch the trappings of monarchy, like opening an Egyptian tomb, the inside is liable to crumble."

- Anthony Sampson

I thought the above was a bit apt, given current events in Bahrain - and Libya, though it's not a monarchy.

This little Lizzie sits on the window of one of the offices at work. The handbag contains a little solar cell, which powers a continual royal wave. I find it faintly disturbing whenever I go in there ;-)
