Sorry for the confusion earlier, I was bleary from lack of sleep. No, that's not an excuse, but is (I hope) an explanation.
I meant that I will no' swear fealty to the Queen, or any English monarch. Historically, the monarch is the nation, so to say that I don't accept England as my Queen means that I don't accept that the Queen of England has any rule over me.
As to dicing, I'd need to see reasonably reliable refutation, as my sources (purportedly apolitical history books as well as several websites that have proven to be accurate) indicate that dicing on one's cap indicates fealty to the Crown of England. If it turns out that the facts are otherwise, I'll still not change which cap I wear, as I prefer the plain. However, it would be nice to have accurate information at hand.
