Brenda has provided continuity these 60 years

And managed fine without continuity before she showed up.

Ah, you mean you think there was no monarch before Brenda?

No, that there wasnt much continuity with those.

It was really only Vicky that provided much continuity similar to what
Liz has.

well given that expected life span is a lot longer these days, actually

It isn't just the life span that matters, its also when they get to become
monarch.

Big ears doesnt have any chance of anything like what his mother managed.
