Magnificent is the only word to describe it. For a few moments you just feel so proud to be British. So proud that you were born here - a subject for a Queen.
Who's the young lady in front of William?
(Second from bottom photo).
The daughter of Prince Andrew or Princess Anne is my guess. Zara Philips? I'm not a royal watcher, so I don't really know
It looks rather like the marvellous Princess Eugenie - daughter of The Duke of York.
No words. Just images that produce the immediate reaction of thanks and gratitude for our heritage and culture. (Great pic of HM by the way checking the rain situation).
Does anyone have a recording of this event either on DVD or video tape? I have a request for this from a West Indian friend now in the USA.
