I saw the queen yesterday, up close - lots of the royal family in fact. I very much enjoyed the royal procession at Ascot. Beverley and I have been saying for years that we should go as Ascot is only 15 minutes away from our house. Some friends invited us along with their group so we dressed up, packed the pic nic and hopped on a 10 minute train (as opposed to £17 to park there!). It was great fun. The weather was good, the food was good, the horse racing went passed very quickly(!) and the band were great - hadn't expected that. And the hats ...! We also planned to leave a little early so as not to get caught in the champagne-fuelled melee at the end.
What a fun day.
