Here in South Lincolnshire, bunting is beginning to appear across shop fronts and flags are being hoisted in gardens. It really does look rather good and there is a palpable feeling that something important is happening soon. Of course it is important and a major milestone in the history of our country. I've been trying to explain to my five year old son just how significant the coming week will be, but he still doesn't quite appreciate it yet.
A visit yesterday to the ATM in our local town provided a glimpse of what we can expect to see as Long Sutton celebrate the Jubilee. The decorations were really very tasteful and I don't think I've ever seen it looking so smart.
An event in Sutton Bridge on Saturday included a fly past by a vintage Lancaster plane and I was fortunate enough to catch the moment on my camera phone. The noise was incredible and I regret not being able to capture the sound from the engines as the plane passed gracefully overhead. A wonderful sight indeed.
I will endeavour to capture some of our local Jubilee spirit this coming weekend...




I think the Jubilee is so much nicer than the Olympics. At least the Queen isn't sending threatening letters to OAPs who knit dolls that contravene her logo copyright.
