Diamond Jubilee



Apart from the weather, which was typically British, it must be said that the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee has been celebrated with all the ceremony, joy but appropriately modest restraint that we have come to expect from recent Royal events.  The spectacular river pageant inspired by Canaletto was marred only by the rain but as expected, the Royals did their duty. The Monday evening concert was amazing with some fantastic performances from rock and pop legends, concluding with a stunning pyrotechnic display.  And finally, the Thanksgiving Service at St Paul’s Cathedral was a fitting tribute to our dedicated and humble monarch
