That’s the only thing I miss about working in London. My walk from the station to work was magnificent when there was any celebration on. It always looks so wonderful 🤩♥️
It rained in 77, never stopped us, football in the rain. Happy days 😁
Went to a couple of street parties in 77, don't remember it raining at all. Still, it was a long time ago!
Our Uncle & Aunt held a big party on the Tree Estate in Dartford. The morning was ok but the long table was put up in the garage just in case. By the afternoon it was raining & I suppose the adults had had a few by then so we all piled out into the garden & played football. It was a great day 😁
The usual suspects are out in force on my social media newsfeeds keen to make as much fuss and noise as possible about how much they don't care about the monarchy etc
The only response I can think of to that is we aren't celebrating subjugation or the monarchy as a concept, this is acknowledging one womans dedication to doing a job, without moaning or bitching about it, into her mid nineties for 75 years

Yeah I used to walk from Charing Cross to Oxford Circus along Regents Street everyday. Lovely walk.
Into town tomorrow to watch the Fly Past and take a stroll up the Mall, Friday at Liam Gallagher (I live in Knebworth and have a freebie), Saturday street party and Sunday a day of rest.
Looking forward to it, have a great one whatever you are up to,
Little set by the neighbours, 5 bbq’s on the go. Fire brigade turned up for the kids to have a go with the siren which then made half the kids cry. Lovely atmosphere but keep nipping in to see the wickets.
Went to London for trooping the colour. Wife's office on Carlton terrace so overlooking the mall. Saw all the marching bands, the royals, and the fly last went right over our heads. Kids loved it.
I can imagine the queen is currently listening to blondie heart of glass and she's about to do a couple of lines. Then she adds curbs to a royal wattsap group.

Going going queen. Keep at it and never give up ❤️
