Back in 2008 our Adam had the pleasure of meeting the Queen at the opening of Liverpool One. We asked him to share his experience of what it was like to meet her and what it meant to him.
I met her on the day that Liverpool One opened as I was working there at the time. Making her way along the line one by one she finally paused in front of me…
I said “Welcome to my city Ma’am“… she said with a sly smile, “Your city?” and I said, “Well you are a guest” and she laughed.
We chatted about Liverpool’s history and my Ruby, who was 1 at the time. Adam explains how he shares his birthday with the Queen and reflects on his feelings after her passing…
I loved the woman behind the Crown, the strong woman that could fix a car engine. It’s like loosing a Nana. You expect them to be around forever and then they go! I will miss her. I’m happy to know she will be with the Duke now.
RIP ma’am.
