Her Majesty was a remarkable woman. To serve as she did with grace, humility and poise without complaint for 70 years makes her one of the best leaders the world had seen during the time of the greatest amount of change.
I am ambivalent towards the royal family, but have seen how they work during visits. No way you would want to do what they have to.
Difficulties were with family management - Charles & Di, Charles and Camilla (early days), Andrew & Sarah, Andrew generally, Harry etc. This is where the biggest difficulties will lie for the monarchy and then KC III needs to gain respect - in a world that is fast losing any.
King Charles says one of his first talks is to reunite the family. Andrew, Harry, Will, Kate, The Seppo. As spf said, I reckon he is just the man to tackle some of the world issues and help shape the future.
