To be fair they do travel a lot and spend a lot of time on their feet, more than we'd expect of most over 90s. The ribbon cutting often involves meeting, talking to people, speeches. It's a lot for someone of that age. I'm not a monarchist but I can sympathise that they are expected to gad about and stand a lot for their respective ages.
