According to the Telegraph, the Queen has invited President Obama to take tea with her when he's in town for the G20 summit in April. Some in the British press (notably, the Telegraph reporter Iain Martin) are apparently annoyed at Obama's eagerness to accept her invitation after he gave Gordon Brown what they judge lame gifts including a DVD box set and some toy helicopters. Whatever, Iain. I'll take those DVDs if you don't want them. It would be totally cool to have tea with the Queen, too, but I think I'd be so nervous I'd drop my priceless teacup. I bet they'd have really good snacks, too.
