#holidays X-mas dinner at the Palace. It's no wonder Vicky was a bit rotund.
@BlueVoter24 I wonder how long was spent at Banquet. If I just had a bite of everything, I'd be stuffed! She was a world class eater!
@SuzE43_ Towards the end of Her life she was as wide as she was tall, and she was only 4ft. 11 in. tall! Another fun fact, dining protocol was such that when She stopped eating, everybody was done.

@BlueVoter24 Well, I'm sure they ate plenty, no one left that table hungry!
@SuzE43_ It's amazing they survived. When Prince Albert saw how dirty everything was (rats running rampant through the palace kitchens, and the smell of sewage was extant) he raised all kinds of hell. The food was often cold by the time it got to them as well.
