Swirl,
Thanks for that. Do you mean that the Housie band is leading the Quenn's procession? That really is quite an honour.

Will this be televised, by any chance ?

Yes, the Marching Band have been asked to lead the birthday celebrations parade. So presumably it`ll be on tv.
School is also sending a birthday card signed by all the pupils (but don`t let HRH know!)

Do you mean HM? Or is it that Philip would save the money if he knew someone else was giving his wife a card?

Possibly

ooo. I wonder if my boss will let me have a long lunch...
Any ideas of the route/times? Fleet Street and the Strand like for her jubilee when the Lord Mayor poked her with his sword (or whatever the tradition is) at the Bar Gate? I can't see anything helpful on the Royal websites. BBC says the service is on 15th June.

As me & Ma are in Barcelona on 21st, would be helpful to know whether BBC Intl. transmitted in live or later. If anyone has any pointers, would be much appreciated - ta

St. Paul's to Buckingham Palace, apparently.
Seems that Brenda herself is going to be in Windsor, though (according to the item on the C.H. website....).
