Here's an interesting aside to the visit of the French president. When they met the Windsors, Mrs Sarkozy, Carla Bruni, curtseyed to them. That is surely unnecessary as she is effectively their equal as the wife to the French head of state.
If this was appropriate, shouldn't Prince Philip have bowed to Sarko?
Which kind of makes you realise that the French revolution may not have achieved all it aimed to.

Clever point. I think the British Monarchy just naturally seems superior. Another point would be that he had been married much longer, so could naturally look down on Carla. But it would seem unfair.
