The Queen Celebrates her Platinum Jubilee

 The family are staying in London. They have come to watch the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee celebrations.

They are watching the soldiers match past when grandfather calls out to Thomas, “Grandmother is missing?”



Grandmother saw one of the Queen’s corgis run into the group of marching guards so she went and caught it. A Royal Guard thanked her and told her to go in Buckingham Palace. He gave her a note to show the guard when she arrives. Grandmother was invited to have a cup of tea.


The Queen has just left the room after having afternoon tea with Paddington Bear. Grandmother sits at the table and the servant brings out a fresh tea pot of tea for them both.



When she finishes having a cup of tea she stops and looks at the tapestry with the list of British Kings and Queens on the left and The Line of Descent of Queen Elizabeth 11 on the right side.



The Grandmother also looks at the picture of The New Zealand Woman’s Weekly, December 24th, 1953.



The Grandmother bends down and says good bye to the corgi she rescued and two other corgis come up to her. 


The Royal Guards escort her to catch the taxi. One guard tells her to expect a parcel from Buckingham Palace when she gets home in New Zealand. (The tag on the tea towel says: The income from your purchase contributes directly to the Royal Collection Trust, a registered charity). 


She has had a lovely afternoon at Buckingham Palace.

New Year's Day 2022


 

The Light Family, the Sport family and their parents are with Ben, Connie and the Breeze family on New Year’s day 2022 discussing what they would like to do during 2022.




Daniel is about to get off the tramp and David is going to be next on the tramp. Alice is ready to have her turn after him. The Lego boy is in the background with the dachshund dog he picked up off the edge of the road.



Simon loves his toy peddle car which all the other children have had a turn driving it. Mr Breeze is making an announcement to the group.


The Sport family received the Cadbury Roses Chocolates Limited Edition tin as a Christmas present in 2021. The design is Ikwere by Michelle Kerrin.

Christmas 2020

 


                                            

The Lundby family are looking at a public display on the front lawn of the local Pastor.


The Sunday school class are singing carols outside this evening for 30 – 40 minutes.


The Sport family have chosen the New Zealand artisan squares selection of chocolates as their favourite chocolates for this year.


The Light family are enjoying a day at the beach. The background is the label of an L & P brown plastic bottle… it is one of New Zealand’s favourite drinks of carbonated mineral water.
