Queen
Gets Bananas Repaid After 65 Years
London,
England (AHN) -- Elizabeth Hyde was only four years old when the Queen Mother
visited her after being injured by a German bomb near her South London home in
1943.
During
that eventful visit, Elizabeth was given a couple of bananas by no less than the
Queen Mother herself, who was then still Princess Elizabeth.
Now
65 years later, it's the 69-year old Elizabeth's turn to repay the Queen.
Meeting
the Queen by chance at a hospital in King's Lynn, Norfolk, where she now lives,
Elizabeth returned the favor by handing the Queen two bananas.
"It
was lovely to be able to thank her properly at last," Hyde, a retired scientist
said.
