Re: 1977, queens jubilee

We had a street party, a photo of our fancy dress competition is below, see if you can guess which one is me

I remember we also got the afternoon off school so we could go to the market place to see the Queen on the balcony of the Town Hall.

Also remember getting the special issue coin that came out and a china cup. my mother has kept them for me.

Re: 1977, queens jubilee

not sure if this should be in the world events section but feel free to move it.
what memories has everyone got of this?

the whole of our school got a large silver jubilee coin each,(which is somewhere at my folks house) , the day off school and street parties.
basically the whole town stopped to eat in the street and play games....and i guess the adults had a drink or two.

back then the royal family was something to be really proud and patriotic about.....or was it just a case of GREAT...a day off school!!!
