he won't be getting a telegram from the queen now...

If the Queen makes it to 100, will she send herself one? ;-)
why not

Well it won't be a telegram it;s a standard card delivered by the royal
mail. And you have to apply for it at least 3 weeks in advance if you
want one.

Oh and of course the Queen doesn,t send it or licks the back of the
stamp ;-)

No-one licks the back of stamps any more

Aroung Christmas time, I ordered some Scottish Royal Mail stamps. They
needed licking, so I bought a wet pad.
