Anagrammy.com has many random files and information stored on it's servers. The facts about Queen Elizabeth is one of them. So, here are the facts straight from anagrammy.com

  1. The Queen's handbag contains a Nintendo Gameboy Advance, an irreplaceable 77-year-old Steiff bear called 'Mister Fuzzy Wuzzy', 'The Little Book of Chavspeak', and (in case Tony Blair calls round for tea), some Clorets.

  2. Queen Elizabeth can order a pint of bitter in 11 languages...English, of course, and French ("Je voudrais un biere brune, s'il vous plait), German ("Könnte Sie ein Glas dunkles Bier bekommen?"), Greek ("Epithymoume ena potiri pikrou zythou!"), Italian ("Posso avere una pinta di birra amara, per favore?"), Dutch ("Mogen haar een glas donker bier bekomen?"), Bulgarian ("Moje li edna bira, molya?"), Serbo-Croat ("Molim vas, mozemo li dobiti pintu piva?"), Finnish ("Voisimmeko saada tuopin olutta, kiitos?"), Malaysian ("Boleh-kah saya di-beri sedikit arak?"), and Mandarin Chinese ("Ning neng gei wo yi bei hei piju ma?")

  3. Windsor Castle is actually made of 1,779,953 breezeblocks covered in artificial stone-cladding she bought from the Iver branch of Wickes in 1938.

  4. During the Golden Jubilee 'Party at the Palace' gig in 2002, it was actually Her Majesty herself standing on the roof of Buckingham Palace playing the National Anthem on an electric guitar, wearing a Brian May wig that she borrowed from Anita Dobson. (The ultimate Queen tribute act!)

  5. The Queen has said "...and what do you do?" 1,693,766 times in her lifetime. (14,962 of these times, it was to Prince Charles!)

  6. She recently acquired 17 more corgis, named Darren, Sharron, Jordan, Wayne, Chantelle, Preston, Legolas, Gimli, Gloin, Camilla, Geri, Cherie, Gizzard Puke, Fagin, Fifi-Trixibelle Satan, and Sven. She's allergic to cats.

  7. In 1995, she had a bit-part in EastEnders, in which she played Dirty Den's Aunt Mildred.

  8. The Queen co-wrote, and did the drum-machine programming for, the 1979 Sister Sledge hit 'We Are Family'.
