I think you're OK with the throne, Roger, people (common folk, that is) do say "on the throne" meaning perched on the porcelain, but the Queen wouldn't. As one of her ancestors was fond of saying "Honi soit qui mal y pense"!
But I do think that "sure" in the last line is a bit Transatlantic for her. "Bugger daffodils" might be rather fun - again there are family precedents in the last words of her grandad.
