What's happening in your world?

[Farseer]

Did you get to any Diamond Jubilee celebrations, fool-ish? Likely you are as sick of things as the lead-up to the Olympics? Or is the Jubilee different?

Ahem... I'd never have believed it of myself but you know you're a monarchist/true subject of the Commonwealth when you stop what you're doing and plonk yourself down on your couch to willingly watch a bit of each aspect of the daily televised events from across the seas, and fight your husband for TV time just so that you can! You even find yourself digging into the Diamond Jubilee website with your daughter... Dare I mention that I even get a bit choked up about things...?

It's difficult to justify/quantify my feelings but I have huge respect for a woman who can, for sixty plus years of service, command respect in a roomful of men - good stuff, Your Majesty. I'll stop my monarchist gushing now, tsk, tsk!!

I have been gallivanting around the countryside quite a bit...driving, always driving. Lots of jobs to get done today and, of course, I have given priority to a quick visit here first...!
