Am all jubilee'ed out :-D :-D


Have really enjoyed all the celebrations but sad that Prince Philip couldn't be with her today. She must have missed him badly. :-(



Will have to catch up with housework tomorrow............ :-D


The RR'ing thing seems to be getting out of hand......staying well away!



I had a sore knuckle last night so thought I would take my engagement ring off as it felt quite tight. The wedding ring still has some movement. Arrrrrgggghhhhh it wouldn't come off.....stuck......no matter what I tried.

In the end, OH fetched his pliers and cut the ring off. I'll take it into town to have it made larger. I also took my wedding ring off to give my knuckle a change to recover but it feels odd to be 'ringless'. :-S

You seem to have really enjoyed the event Cynthia - SO pleased for you !!

I had a little chuckle today also - more trauma because DIL's car has 'broken' so they are struggling even more than before but grand-daughter insisted that the gear box had disappeared !! - She INSISTED that mummy told her that the gear box had 'gone' - i.e. disappeared !! - I tried to explain to her that it meant that it was broken but she kept telling me that it has 'disappeared' because mummy said !! :-D :-D

Just wish that grandpa would wake up !!

Linda ......................



re Anne, Andrew, Edward and all the other grandchildren .........

.......... they were there, but the Queen apparently wanted the focus to be on the direct heirs, Charles, William and Harry ................ so the others were in the background.


I'm sure Harry will be only too glad when Will and Kate have a child so that he too can drop into the background!

Shirley Bassey only did one song and I am sure that was cut short so Kylie could do four...I am sure the Queen would rather have seen Shirley than Kylie

Stevie Wonder was late so they got Rolf Harris to sing Two little boys which I was singing along too then they stopped him just before the last verse grrr

I thought Cliff sounded as though his teeth did'nt fit and Elton sang as though he forgot to put his in and Paul Mcartney was rubbish

Overrall it was'nt bad the best bit was Charlies speach and calling the Queen mummy
