500N, it was certainly appreciated by the Londoners, although I do have a chuckle at this
We should remember the tremendous contribution of the Queen Mother to the war effort:
As the BBC pointed out, she 'bravely remained in London beside her husband' during the war.

The shame will always be with us.
