Etiquette basically means rules and rituals and customs. When to nod, bow, kneel, walk backwards – you get the idea. IF YOU SHOULD HAPPEN TO MEET THE QUEEN OF ENGLAND Curtsey. Or bow depending on your male/female status. Call her Your Majesty. After this first greeting is over, you can call her mam as in ham not marm as in balm. i.e.: Curtsey. RUBY: ‘Hello, Your Majesty.’ QOE: ‘Hello and how are you?’ RUBY: ‘Just swell mam.’ QOE: ‘Oh, you’re American.’ Queen extends hand; you shake it. Conversation over. You walk backwards three paces and curtsey or bow as applicable. MEETING THE AMBASSADOR Call him or her Your Excellency – they like this as it makes them feel like being the ambassador was worth all the long hours and living in a rented home. General note… People who have titles – Lord, Lady, Viscount, Sir, Dame, etc. – really like you to use ’em so, if you want to get a titled person onside, don’t forget to stick it on the envelope.
