It'll be easy to figure out if she's circling the drain.
The queen insists that she is going to die in Scotland. As a result my cousin who is a motorcycle outrider for Police Scotland spends a lot of time each year rehearsing getting an ambulance from airports to any of the appointed royal death nests.
If there hasn't been an announcement about her recovery and she heads north then prepare yourself for months of commemorative daily mail souvenir editions. Oh and the tacky mugs/spoons.

I wrote/updated Operation London Bridge/Forth Bridge in relation to my department's role in the run-up to and the funeral itself. We were the counter terrorist search side of the operation in Windsor. I don't think they'll take her to Scotland just to bring her back south again once she's carked it. If she's well enough to travel there then they'd have to instigate the full protection (out of the normal season) of the residence until she dies. Dying in transit would be a very bad thing. As her mother, father and sister are interred at Frogmore House she might prefer to be close to them. Who can say really?
When she goes it's two bank holidays. We're getting one for her jubliee so she needs to go after that for maximum bank holidayage.
