The Head Housekeeper and the Lord Chamberlain have regular staff meetings mainly to check on Household morale and to ensure all is as it should be. In fairness the staff are given ample opportunity to put in any complaints and express any worries they have. These meetings are generally enjoyed as the kitchen staff put on a wonderful buffet, producing exclusive snacks for their colleagues. The cellar staff naturally organize the wines and other liquid refreshments. The meetings are held quarterly. And the Queen and her Council know better than to (a) interrupt these meetings and (b) to expect much work from the staff the following day as most are in a fairly befuddled state! Those wines are good! In fairness, the kitchen staff set up meals in advance to allow for this. The Palace is remarkably quiet on the day after these meetings...
The entire Palace staff is given one week off to spend at a luxurious coastal resort that only the royals go to for some R & R. Eileen made most use of the place! The Palace is run entirely by magic during the staff’s absence. This takes an enormous amount of power, hence it is only done for one week. The Kingdom has taken to use manual power and machines to save on magical powers wherever possible. The coastal resort is made up of one huge country house with direct access to a coral beech and permanently blue-green seas. Woodland backs the property and the estate here is protected by major spells to ensure nothing harmful ever approaches this place. Eileen also tried to extend her visits whenever possible. The Queen herself goes to this retreat once a year, usually after her staff get back though a few remain, ready to wait on their boss.
