    Glad to know you are still young-enough to rock!!.

    Spent this afternoon on carpark duty in Castle Park (will be there again tomorrow morning so pray for a nice day). The Scouts got asked by the organisers of the Medieval Fayre to run the car park and in exchange we got to keep the proceeds.

    Discovered Sat. night that a near-neighbour that I have known for 14 years was a drummer in a rock band.The band was performing at my local pub as part of their beer festival. Turned into quite a rowdy night.

    Jubilee concert was rubbish. Even the Queen turned-up an hour after it started.

    just hope this Jubilee stuff isn't being paid for by the Taxpayer.

    One of the Queen's wishes was that the taxpayer did not pay for the celebrations so it was all funded by private enterprises, etc ;)

    Having a nice lazy day today. Neither of us got up till 1am:eek: except to let the doggies out earlier ;) Alan got up to watch the flypast and have a couple of bacon sarnies then went back to bed but is ok, just tired today

    Was a damp, dull start to the day but started raining heavily about an hour ago :(

    Glad you had a good time at the Jubilee party hun :j

    Whatever people's views on the Monarchy, and I loooove the Queen and the pageantry and history of it all, the chance was there for everyone to have a good time and at least it was a long weekend off for those that work. Great to see so many people enjoying themselves :j :j

    Personally I am a great admirer of the Queen & am in awe of her service & dedication to our great country.
    I would not want her life for all the money in the world.
