Palace Garden Party - Some Pictures

Had picture uploading problems again, but overcame them.

So - here, after all manner of delays, are some pictures of Steven and Lisa's big day at the Palace. It was still not permitted to take photographs within the palace grounds, even though Lisa said that many were flouting the rule, with cameras on mobiles. But they didn't. Should have been a 'Tower' job in my opinion. The security-services have got enough to worry about at such events without irresponsible people pointing unidentified small boxes at HM!

Picture 1 is in their own rear garden, before they set off and, as you can see, the weather was smashing. Our involvement was to go over at 'schools out' time and to take Hannah and Miles to The Ferry Boat for an evening meal.

Picture 2 is 'almost there' and they certainly do look a handsome couple. We are all very proud of Steven's achievement, which is due to his own conscientious efforts, and long hours. His epithet on his 'Google Talk' entry, when he can't talk, is 'Steven is working very hard' which sums it up.

Just to remind readers of the Blog something about pictures. If you 'left click' on a picture a larger version opens in a new window. And unless a picture is already as big as it will go, on the enlarged picture you will see a little magnifying glass. This will produce an even bigger version !

Picture 3 is lovely Lisa by herself and as Steven put it - "She scrubbed up pretty well". We can all do nothing but agree. I haven't asked Steve how he managed to find a parking space but he always seems to succeed !

These are pictures they will be able to show their grandchildren.

Just a few domestic matters. Not a full Blog because I don't want to dilute the reporting of their big day. I continue to improve and managed an hour's trip to Eastwood this morning even though I was abit pale when we got back. Y went to a new hairdresser and although she only had a trim she was very happy with the result. And it certainly looks good.

Bob is coming tomorrow. And although he says he doesn't want feeding, I shall need to eat so I am hoping he will join me in a bowl of soup and a hunk of bread..........
