Let the Parties Begin

London is awash with flags in preparation for the Jubilee Weekend celebrations. Today there will be a 41 gun salute. Sunday is the big flotilla where more than a 1,000 boats will travel down the Thames. Streets are closed off for parties. Even Piccadilly will be closed. Monday there will be a big concert outside Buckingham Palace. Tuesday will be a parade along Whitehall and Pall Mall.

A wee damper on the events is the weather. I guess we will be singing "long may she rain over us".



Now if you are around Putney to see the flotilla, pop along to The Exchange Shopping Centre. You'll find a crown there filled with jewels. If you guess the correct number you are in to win your very own diamond ring.
