Heya ppl !!! This is really a bad ever thing that has happened in the history of Royals... The royals too are now victims of inflation in U.K... N now watz our position here in this pathetic world?? lolzzzz !!!
"Do we have enough money to do certain things?" this is wat Queen Elizabeth II utters wheneva someone claims, her home has to be repaired !!!

Yes..like all other ppl in the country the royals even have become a victim to U.K's inflation.
The Queen's accountant says the household’s attempts at reducing carbon emissions and Low-energy bulbs are being installed, the gas boilers are switched off in summer, fuel is bought nine months in advance and water from a borehole at Buckingham Palace is being used to cool the wine cellars and irrigate the garden. He painted a picture of Her Majesty going round switching off the lights and exclaims “She takes a strong lead” :)
Among the projects listed as urgent is replacing most of the roof at Windsor Castle — all the area not renovated after the fire in 1992. The work there and on the roof of Buckingham Palace is estimated to cost £16 million.
Journalists were told they could speculate on whether the Queen raises the repair of the royal palaces with Gordon Brown when she meets him one-to-one each week: “Prime Minister, about my roof...”
