No, I am not calling QE2 feeble, as it is not true, and I do not want to be visited by 007 in the middle of the night. But the Queen does not move as spritely nor appear as often as she did 20 years ago.

Does Charles get the Astin Martin DB5, Q-edition, once retired from the British Secret Service?
