Staff and patients at St Mary’s Hospital were left stunned on New Year’s Eve when Queen Victoria and her son, King Edward VII, made a surprise visit to the Newport site.
The royal appearance brought unexpected cheer, with many catching a glimpse of the historic monarchs as they toured the hospital grounds.
Queen Victoria has said:
“Having heard of the delicious meals served in the hospital canteen, one decided to taste them for oneself.
“They lived up to expectation, and the portion was large enough to satisfy even Bertie’s appetite.”
Imagine coming round/being groggy and thinking you’ve time travelled.
Anyone visiting the island, when they step off the ferry
they have entered a time travel zone.
The island is still in the 1950s in some areas and
1970s in other areas.
All the luxury food she at home and she has to scrounge a patients meal not content with a huge rent free council house.
Perk of being born privileged.
