A week before the wedding ceremony of Kate Middleton and Prince William it is definitely not quiet at Windsor Castle.
The Queen and the Duke of Edinburgh have met Kate´s parents last week.
Kate Middleton was unlike her parents almost equal introduced to the Queen.

The future parents of her grandson were not previously able to meet the Queen than the intention was. This had to do with her busy royal diary.
The event was planned before the engagement announcement. Yet questions remain as to why such a meeting eventually took place after the couple´s eight -year courtship
Opinion:
After reading the article above it seems like the queen really lives by the strict protocols of the royal family. A meeting with Kate Middleton then girlfriend of her grandson Prince William seems more important than a meeting with her parents. It appears that this queen grandmother is much in control. If I compare her with our Queen, I know that Queen Beatrix is more modern set. She has some modern ideas and approaches of the protocols. the world I also look forward to this royal wedding. Still I remain curious about the reasons why the meeting eventually took place and was possible after eight years .Was it really her busy agenda-setting?
The Queen of England has always been a mystery to me. Why would someone behave like she does. She does not seem to take any notice of her son and his wishes. The media write so much about the Queen and William and Kate, that I almost forgot that William has got a father as well.
