British Queen Elizabeth II, who increased the number of her public engagements in 2010, is set to be busier this year, a media report said today.
Most people of her age would have retired long ago, but the 84-year-old monarch carried out 444 engagements in 2010, 69 more than in 2009. Her workload featured 57 overseas engagements, the Daily Mail reported.
Palace officials say 2011 will be busier still, with the royal wedding, Prince Philip’s 90th birthday and two “significant” overseas state visits. “She won’t be slowing down,” said a spokesman.IANS
