What's in the Queen's omnipresent purse:
"in her handbag the Queen always carries a mirror, a lipstick, a pen, several mints, and her reading glasses. On Sundays, she also takes a couple of neatly folded bills for church donations.
However, mostly Her Majesty uses this accessory as a kind of an indicator: with its help, she lets the staff know that she would like to leave a social event. For example:
If, while talking to someone, the Queen shifts her purse from one hand to the other, then the courtiers take it she is ready to finish this particular discussion. You, however, wouldn’t even notice this gesture because everything is so subtle. For example, someone would approach you and say, “Sir, the Archbishop of Canterbury would be pleased to talk with you.“
If the Queen puts her purse on the dinner table, she wants the current event to be over within the next 5 minutes.
By putting her purse on the floor, Her Majesty shows she finds no pleasure in the conversation she’s having and would like a lady-in-waiting to give her a hand.
The most dramatic gesture, though, is twisting her ring. That means the Queen needs to be ”rescued" immediately.
Sorry, evidence says you're very wrong. Here two people been taking it daily for a total of over 40 years combined, with no ill effects, no turning blue, and we simply do not succumb to communicable diseases when others do. Our cuts and scrapes heal twice as fast when sprayed with CS. We make it at home for less than pennies. Keeps our pets healthy too.
You are simply wrong, very wrong.
