Talking of disappearing things, on which to park your arse in Accy.

The circular stone flower beds have recently been removed from Broadway.

They were a handy place to perch, when the few remaining benches were full.

Yes, when it comes to bungs, or more correctly promise of financial reward, subject to planning permission being granted.

You 'buy one councillor, and get the other one free'.

Sort of like a special offer.

(In your worst nightmares.)

Easy when you know it! Thankx.

My mum's friend helped with the flowers and it seems it was a massive effort to get everything perfect for Her Maj. Does she know i wonder?


The balcony was all in cream. gold and pale green apparently -did they have word of her outfit to match? -

Inside i believe it's all been done in lilac and pink, sounds lovely.Can anyone confirm or show any pics -despite two threads on the subject there have been very few photos...

She'll probably post what she took with her own phone on YouTube.

Have a little patience.

She has a lot on.

Lizzie'slife.com ?

Wonder what happpened to all the flowers once she'd gone - they must have cost a lot , hope they went to a good cause or a local OAP's home or such....

Perhaps all the HBC councillors etc. have rather nice table decorations at home this weekend.
