(and reminds me of Mr G when I first met him, sigh.......what happened Mr G?!!!)

 

 

Lenny!!!!

 

 

Tom!!! Looking good!

 

Robbie crooning......

 

And of course good old Rolf!

Sadly at this point my camera memory was full so I had to just settle down like normal folk and watch the TV without viewing it through a lens........

But for those who missed the concert, there was a grand all star line up which included, amongst others, Sir Elton John, Stevie Wonder, Shirley Bassey, Annie Lennox, Sir Paul McCartney, Madness and Kylie - she could have have dressed up a bit for the occasion and worn a dress!

I'll leave you with a couple of images that came out with rather odd effects.....

The Queen superimposed on Prince William!

That's what comes of taking photos of the TV I guess!


I'll be announcing the winner of the Diamond Jubilee shortly - so watch this space!

Jubilee Celebrations

Well what a fabulous Diamond Jubilee Bank Holiday weekend of celebrations, grateful thanks, and pageantry  it was here in the UK earlier this week!

60 years of dedication and hard work by Her Majesty, celebrated with plenty of pomp and circumstance with the River Pageant, horse drawn carriage parade and Cathedral Service, as well as the more informal celebrations with the pop concert in front of the Palace and All the Queen's Horses at Windsor Castle compered by Alan Titchmarsh.

Our Queen must be exhausted after it all and in need of a well deserved rest!

Hip. Hip.........Hooray - Three cheers for the Queen!

Hope you all enjoyed a wonderful Jubilee Weekend!

As well as watching the celebrations on TV we went to a Jubilee garden party along the road with over 90 people there, and in true British tradition it rained most of the time!

But did we care???!!!!

What did YOU do????
