That really is the best excuse ever.

Comes close to "why aren't Amanda/Claire/Caroline/Ruth/Anne in class today? Where are they?" from an indignant substitute French teacher at secondary school. "Please miss, they're meeting the Queen again" didn't cut it as a reply, even though it was true.


[Their fathers were senior Queen's Flight and Amanda's dad taught Fergie to fly; Royal visits were par for the course.]

It's way better than the, "I can't come to class next week because my parents booked us on a cruise," that I get!
