Queen Elizabeth

I am so saddened to hear of the passing of our Queen. She embodied everything that was good about our country.

She had an unenviable role. Which she did with grace, dignity and charm. And for 70 years.

Whatever you think of the monarchy, you have to admire the way she reigned.

It’s a sad day indeed. 😢 The Queen is dead, Long live the King.

Thank you your Majesty. May you live on in our hearts. Rest in peace. Tonight I raise a glass in your honour…

Platinum Jubilee

Today we celebrated the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee. 70 years on the throne (or in the same job). An amazing achievement.

Let’s face it, we Brits like a bit of pomp and ceremony. And bunting. We really like bunting. It’s been lovely to see so many people celebrating. I’m sure there will be some sore heads tomorrow.

The monarchy is part of our culture, our identity and our Britishness.

Thank you your Majesty. Long live the Queen.
