Jubilee stuff

[Nick]

Caught the tail end. All that Land of Hope and Glory stuff. I sort of welled up 

[Miss Demeanour]

No tears ....we're on flood alert down here

I've avoided the entire thing....

Good man!

Most people after doing the same job for 60 years would expect just a watch or something, not all this palaver. It's almost as bad as the fuss over a few people running quite quickly that's called the Limpix

[Miss Demeanour]

 

If only I could get out of London for the summer 

[Marley's Ghost (Imbiber of Spirits)]

Yes, best avoided at all costs! Especially when you stop to think what a tempting target it must be for those of a radicla Muslim persuasion!

Fascinating fact  - a body 'part' is considered anything more than 5cm x 5cm

Fascinating fact No. 2, in certain circumstances, guess who deals with the smaller bits

Sooooooo, they were talking on the telly about these beacons they are lighting tonight. "ooh, we could go and see one if there's any nearby" said Mrs JOM, so I go to the website to see where the nearby ones are, hoping for one with food and drink available. "Oh, that's nearby" thought I, lets see what's going on......


"We also look forward to seeing many of you on the evening of 4 June.  St Catherine’s Wolverton will be lighting one of the Diamond Jubilee Beacons at 10.20 pm.  If you want to see other beacons taking part, please visit www.diamondjubileebeacons.co.uk. There will be an opportunity to see the view from the top of the tower before dark and a chance to light the beacon yourself.  If you haven’t applied for tickets yet, please use the form in the May Parish Magazine or use the link below to print off the form.
 
 
Ticket price (to cover event cost): Family Ticket (2 adults 2 children U18) £25, Adults £10 Children (U18) £5
Ticket price includes entrance and one free drink, with cash bar and refreshments available.

 

Sod that for a game of soldiers. I could do a Darwin and have a pint of Talisker I suppose

Went up 'me 'ill' last night with approx 500 other sheeples to watch the beacon being lit at 10pm.

All the hurrah Henry's were being driven up there in a fleet of council owned 4x4's,  whilst us mere plebs walked up.

BIG countdown against the backdrop of a moost glorious sunset and ...WOW! 
What can only be described as a large ish bunsen burner was lit simultaneouly as the fantastic awesome record breaking ONE firework.

The council REALLY pushed the boat out on this one.

Great evening anyways regardless, and far better than sitting around in some random street or watching the telly.
