In a further sign of dire economic times, Buckingham Palace is now doing some budget busting with the queen herself due for a pay freeze, and Prince Charles set to foot the bill for some major expenses. According to Ingrid Seward, editor-in-chief of Royal magazine, the queen is going around Buckingham Palace turning off the lights, having fewer staff, and even turning the heat down. She sometimes even writes letters in her very own fur coat. Ingrid also reports that it is quite sad to see the Queen Mother having to act in such a common fashion.
