I was at the motel where many attending an Atlantian Twelfth Night were lodged; it was Saturday morning and the King had asked my assistance getting the Regalia Box (a car-top carrier) off his car and into his room.  Having completed that mission, we saw a gray-haired woman laden with groceries fumbling with her key card.  The two of us assisted her in carrying several loads of groceries and other supplies to her room, and went back with her as she checked to be sure her car was locked.

Now, we were both in modern clothes at the time and I never addressed the King by any title or name, so the recipient of this royal favor had no idea that he was the King.  What I would have given to be where I could see her when first she saw HM in garb!

Your servant aye
