The 95-year-old Queen of England stunned the organizers of the "Adult Award of the Year" • In a letter sent to the Oldie magazine, she rejected their request to award her the prize for her contribution to the kingdom for 70 years, adding: "A person's old age is determined by


Queen Elizabeth long ago broke the priesthood record of all her predecessors on the British crown, but it seems that she never lost the spirit of youth.

The Oldie magazine in the UK, a magazine dedicated entirely to seniors who want to consume only important news, wanted to give the Queen its annual award - "Adult Award of the Year" - which is given to older people who have contributed greatly to the community. 

It is likely that the vast majority of the nation's nationals - even the Queen's fiercest opponents and the monarchy - believe that the Queen meets this criterion in light of being such an important figure that instills stability and respect for the kingdom for decades, especially ahead of the 70th anniversary celebrations.

But surprisingly, the answer from Buckingham Palace was negative.

It was reported yesterday that the Queen refused "politely but resolutely" to accept the award, even though she sent the magazine her "heartfelt wishes".

The chairman of the award committee on behalf of the magazine sent the palace the request to give her the award last July, and a few weeks later he received an official reply letter stating: “The Queen believes that a person's old age is determined by how he feels;

Therefore, the Queen does not believe that she meets the appropriate criteria to receive the award, and hopes to find a person who deserves more. "It should be noted that in 2011, the Queen's late husband, Prince Philip, won the award on the occasion of his 90th birthday. 

Either way, despite the negative answer, the magazine has not given up on a tribute to the 95-year-old queen, and she appears on the cover of his new issue, with a big picture of her and her crushing quote that does not really matter to a man's age.
