6. She liked to get woken up by the sound of bagpipes.
- When the Queen spent her time at Balmoral Castle in Scotland, she was often woken up to the sound of bagpipes, played by her official ‘Piper to the Sovereign’.
- he would play every day at her window from 9am, for around 15 minutes in order to start the monarch's day with music. He is said to have played a different song every time, as the Queen didn’t like too many repeats.
- Touchingly, the Piper to the Sovereign actually also played at the Queen’s funeral, opting for the lament, ‘Sleep, dearie, sleep’, which was played towards the end of the service at Westminster Abbey
