It's a bird your Majesty ma'am......

Continuing the best of british summer, here we are at Royal Ascot on the opening day of the new grandstand, along with her Majestay and about 80,000 lesser peeps in fine suits and silly hats :-)

This was a memorable day, we had a great time. Susan's hat has a stuffed bird on it - really !

Picnic before going in, here's champagne charlie knocking back the good stuff (you can't take it with you, as the saying goes, but in this case you really can't take drinkies in)


On a different day (of course) at Lords Surrey-Middlesex T20 game we bumped into another ex-RMer Andrew Wise, Terry's right hand man - now doing well for himself at Harwell - enjoyed recapping the inside track with hindsight and all that :-)
