Garden Party at Buckingham Palace

I seem to be only able to manage one post a month at the moment - work and other stuff keep me away from the i-Pad which isn't necessarily a bad thing.

I had an exciting afternoon out this week as I was lucky enough to go to a garden party at Buckingham Palace.  The WI is 100 years old this year and the Garden Party was to celebrate the centenary,  quite a few of the Royal ladies belong to the WI.   I saw Camilla and Sophie and had a lovely tea. Thankfully it didn't rain but it was very windy and lots of ladies had to chase after their hats across the lawns.  I re-thought my outfit at the last minute as I didn't fancy struggling with an umbrella, hat and handbag.  Plus it was quite chilly.  But none of that mattered and I had a great time.
