all over now, the King and Queen have been crowned and Louis behaved himself.
It was a spectacle which the British are so good, at and the reason that other countries envy us.
I had to smile when they came out on the Balcony, the kings crown was definately off kilter..... tilted to one side, gave him rather a rakish air.
Ture to form it rained, but there was no Queen Salote of Tonga or Winston Churchil to wave to the crowds from their carridges as there were when I watched the past Queens coronation on a Great Uncles TV. I was just 10 years old. There was a film made in technicolour which they showed to schoolchildren at the cinema.......
So DB was glued to the TV from 9am until I made him put it off safter the second balcony appearance.
We are having ding dinners tonight, afraid I just cannot be bothered to cook.
