Coronation Day - UK

Ahh yes i should start now! You might get it by 2069

I think that tea cosy was knitted tho, crochet is my jam. (I turned photos off again so i cant double check)

How about just the crown as a tea cosy? Might be able to get that to ya by end of decade 😆
I'm sure you can replicate it in crochet! A wearable crown crocheted would be kinda cool though!

Do you want the man one or the woman one? Might need one of those old school orgasmatrons to get it to stand upright.

Whichever is easiest!

I'm going to get a flag in the sales I think. I got my coronation Golden Syrup tin.

And a McVities biscuits tin as well, of which the biscuits were eaten during the coronation!
 
Awesome stuff nightshade, ever heard of the seriously rare parchment written by Prince Harry that praises the King ?
 
I mostly preferred the non headliners! The Royal Collaboration was beautiful, Lucy was amazing on the piano. The drone lights were just incredible.
 
I missed the tiaras. But it was a lovely ceremony. Charles looked a bit nervous. I was happy for him, he's literally waited a lifetime for this.

That feather in Princess Anne's hat gave Harry a bit of a challenge. 😄
 
Why is Louis an awful child? (From earlier in the thread). I don’t know anything about the kids, so it seems so harsh to say. But maybe deserved?

He was just a bored 5 year old in a 2 hour long church service! Nothing special about it, I thought he did very well for as long as he did.

Ah I get it, and my gosh, having brought my nieces to church services… Yeah they are not angels 🙈

Yeah I wouldn't say awful because he's only 5 but there's a pattern of him being naughty and a free spirit in public. Like in this clip, from a year ago when he was 4 he tried to pull a little girl's hair and put his hand over his mother's mouth.

His cousin Mia, so a girl he knew
Lol, while I think he is pretty adorable there, it also makes me glad not to have kids. Shaping kids into ok adults is a job of work!

True- Charlotte always seems well put together in public at least lol
@Taake - I think he's spoiled - overindulged (probably because he's neither heir nor spare). I'm betting the media wouldn't call him "high-spirited" if he'd grown up on a council estate.

I just wanted an excuse to say "hes not the Messiah, hes a very naughty boy" but then only said the Messiah bit out loud in a funny voice, not online 😂

It is pretty amazing how much kids can get away with lately, there has been a real shift from making them the next lot of working adults, to now them being worshiped as the sole hope and future of the world. Perhaps its just the age I am at (mid 30's) so all of my friends who have small children are completely under their spell. They can do no wrong. I look forward to their teen years 😊

Just realised that archie and lilibet are gona have cute little american accents!

Lol, literally me to my sister the other day with the kids: ”you’re weak! Just say no!”

Ah, ok. Not sure what a council estate is, but from context, I’m going to assume that if he was of a different class his behavior wouldn’t have been so tolerated.

He reminds me of my youngest niece, so I have hope that the kids that are little shits can still mellow out eventually 😅
 
Council Estates are(or more accurately 'were') an attempt to provide low cost social housing managed by the local authority . They can be as large as a town or just a row of houses . They were our answer to slums and bombed out cities . Failed pretty spectacularly in the urban context but out by me in the hinterlands , there are some gorgeous little council houses tucked away in the villages . A few sketchy settlements too . Even total despicable scumbags deserve a chance to have a normal family life when they have kids , and council dwellings fulfilled that need . Still do ,to an extent , but I think Housing Associations manage the properties now .
