Coronation Party

Coronation Party

As today is coronation day I thought it might be fun to get together for this momentous occasion.

I would have invited everyone to my home for high tea but I’m in hospital so the event will happen here on the forums instead.

I respect that not everyone is a monarchist or even cares for the monarchy. This being especially true for those First Nations people and others who suffered anywhere under colonialism.

You can’t beat the Brits for pomp and splendour so please feel free to join in wearing your tiaras, robes and silk stockings.

I’d love to see lots of forumites with their fine China join in for a cuppa from 5pm East coast time, 3pm west coast time and 9am Greenwich Mean time.

Re: Coronation Party

Ha ha @Bow diff sense re singing ... what did you think of the dancing Alleluia?

I thought it was refreshing.

Glad Charles' voice is not pompous.

I am not much of a royalist, but like his style and commitment to sustainablilty.

Re: Coronation Party

So much ancient symbolism… the change of clothes… the sword

@Appleblossom the gospel singers in white? I liked it.

@Bow

Saw an interview where Princess Anne said her invite to do the Protector role ... on a horse etc .... meant her "dress" problem was solved. Love her humour.

Ever practical Anne @Appleblossom

Camilla looks quite chuffed with her crown safely on her head.

Re: Coronation Party

Yes, they were talking about that earlier @Appleblossom about princess Anne not having to wear a dress… which she much prefers.
