River pageant




      In West Norfolk, despite the distance from London, we hate to be left out of any Royal celebrations; after all we have got Sandringham just up the road.
      Ironically the weather is how I remember it on the day of the Coronation, pouring with rain and grey; it was even like that on Auntie Lily's black and white TV, a 12" screen and just shades of grey with 'snow' fuzzing the screen up.
      Even Giles the resident cartoonist in the Sunday Express always portrayed Bank Holidays as wet, after all it's a great British tradition.
      For our regular readers we are not going to let the weather dampen our mood so, to lift your spirits too, here are some celebratory scenes that will make you want to wave your wet flag, shout and cheer.
      Cheers.
