How Will You Mark The Coronation?

[LadyCG]

I just went to fetch the bin back in and got talking to our new NDNs. They asked about the people in the street and I mentioned about the socially distanced drinks during COVID and the get together to mark the late Queen's Jubilee.

I have said that we will likely all get together on someone's driveway to toast King Charles III for the coronation and they seemed quite pleased to hear that.

Will you have a street party or perhaps a private party? Or will you just watch it on the TV or not bother full stop? I think it's nice to do something personally and I look forward to seeing the bunting out on the street.

Telly watch for me.. Royalists ara a bit thin on the ground here

[LadyCG]

Sorry to hear that, Minty. They're plentiful in these parts. There was much bunting on display during the Jubilee.

I hope we have a good knees up here.

We had good street parties in Herts and Norfolk

[LadyCG]

I bet you did. Did you dance on the tables? ;)

We will have some sort of village (well, hamlet) do like we did for the Jubilee. We got very drunk, in the rain, in a gazebo by the pond.

I was asked before Christmas if we would offer our garden, but I have declined. Mainly because if it rains, people will be trapsing in and out for the loo and the place will end up in a bigger mess than it already is.

Lol moi ? Non ! But plenty did

[murraymints]

Everyone Doon to Barmaids !

[murraymints]

My garden was used for the tennis club Strawberry teas..till I stamped my foot ! Lol..

Haven't heard of anything yet but I will have to go and have a look at the village notice board. I think the Methodist church held a tea party for the over 60's and so did the local church.

[LadyCG]

I think you made a wise decision there, BM. I'm sure you'll mark the occasion in the most befitting way nevertheless.

I can imagine, Minty...

I went to a local neighbourhood party for the last Coronation (and got a free mug and an orange), but probably won't this time.

[lady-janine]

Change of plan. (working out to get to Bobbi)

[LadyCG]

I vaguely remember Princess Diana's wedding. I was four and a half years old. I remember William's birth too and we all made cards in our class but mine didn't get sent and my teacher found it in my little cubby hole a couple of weeks later.

Minty, I might make a cake for this coronation...

Wotcher, Bobbi. I just knew you'd be organising something.
