8/3/2002: Feet of the Queen



Brits in the readership will already know about this one. These are the feet of H.M. the Queen. Normally Her Majesty doesn't really go around barefootin' but last week she visited a British mosque for the first time, paying tribute to the 3.5 million Muslims in Britain. The rarity of the appearance of the feet is what makes the pic so special. It turns out they look like everyone else's. Who knew?

She was also presented with a copy of the Koran in English and Arabic. She inquired about the direction of Mecca at the prayer room.

Anyone remember the old Robyn Hitchcock number "Veins of the Queen"? Or is it just me. It's just me again, isn't it.
