September 8th - The end of an Era

It was with great sadness that we all heard of the death of Her Majesty - for most of us she was a constant presence in our lives. My earliest memories are of the Coronation day - I was 4 and I remember it so well. All sorts of activities and a wonderful street party! And our living room full of people who descended on us to see the event on television - not many had tv then! Truly, the end of an era, the second Elizabethan age and a third King Charles. The Castle was lit up red and the moon was full - so beautiful and poignant somehow.
