Nah, not done anything for the Jubilee - afterall, the Queen ain't done nothing for me lol. Her govt is in disarray and the country is in sticky stuff. Not much for her to celebrate.
worked most of it. and going to work again shortly
not much going on round here as far as street party's go

Did notice that she wasn't smiling a lot either, didn't even crack a smile when charley called her mummy, everybody else cracked up. Still if that's what being head of state does to you she can keep it.
We had a great barbeque party down our road yesterday,
showed some great community spirit which to me is the best part about it as peoples lives have become to insular IMHO

We've been busy. Was on call Sat/Sun/Mon but that side was quiet.
Sat - village sports day followed by BBQ in evening.
Sun - craft show with jubilee theme (my wife won 3 classes)
Monday - rounders in the afternoon, tug-o-war etc and then a band in the evening until late
Tues - 'bring and share' street party this afternoon & kids fancy dress
Id estimate half the houses are decorated, including ours. In addition to the obligatory bunting we also are displaying a Yorkshire and Lancashire flag. Even got a Union Flag bandanna for the dog.
I think these things are great. Brings people together and gives some pride in being British. Bah humbug to the miserable people.
God Save the Queen!

Well I am not a great royalist but I am proud of her and think she does a great job. What's this blaming her for the state of the country this is a democracy we vote in the government in not her. How many people don't even get of there bums during election time.

kerch,
Glad to hear the good news mate on your Grand Daughter.
We went to a party Sunday in an adjoining set of houses, it rained badly!
We threw our garden open yesterday to friends and neighbours in an attempt to foster neighbourhood relations, it worked quite well, and we did a BBQ for charity and raised just over
