Prince Philip was clueless. Funny.

That is Prince Philip’s life in one very short sentence. His sense of duty and loyalty are absolute..it cannot be easy for him.

Let’s see. I suspect they ran into trouble when they could not decide which to emphasize; memorialize the Queen of England’s visit, signal the importance of the very spot where she stood and at the same time also mention that she did not come alone but in fact, accompanied by Prince Philip. In a secular and egalitarian world, none of these three facts would have mattered at all. That’s why I suspect, it strikes us all as so funny.

This is funny. Why state something like that? Sana hanggang doon nalang sa 9 July 1976 at wala ng kasunod. Hahaha!

There’s nothing really wrong about the plaque, except for the addition of “stood nearby”. Prince Philip is said to have a sense of humour, so maybe he said something in jest at the time and the church wanted to remember it?
