[Palace] Will you be buying/have you bought Jubilee crap/memorabilia?

[Icy Gull]

I am not anti Royals but what is the attraction?

Anyone on here collect it or buy it for relatives or friends?

 

[Lyndhurst 14]

I'm waiting to see if Private Eye do some "Congratulations Brenda on your Platinum Jubilee" stuff

 

[Swansman]

Unlikely.

I'm saving up for buying jubilee crap for next year when the Swedish king has ruled for 50 years.

Here the man is caught smoking.

I'll make sure to buy plenty of cigarettes to honor him.

 

[Worried Man Blues]

If Harveys bring out a commemorative beer, I'm sure to buy and raise a glass to Her Majesty, rude not to!

 

[WATFORD zero]

I see Crodo got up early to vote

 

[Perfidious Albion]

Everyone says not but how many better halves will buy something or something for a kid to have at a street party?
Nb definitely not in my household...

I’ve bought a mug to go with my previous collection. I love history.
As a veteran, I entered the ballot to be seated by the Victoria Memorial for Trooping the Colour next Thursday. I was successful so will be celebrating the Boss on her Platinum Jubilee. If you watch it on tv, look out for me.

The older I get the more detatched and unable to relate I find myself from these kind of national events. I said it during the Euros that I struggled to even support England and watch "our" run to the final with any more interest than any other games (blasphemy to some I know) despite having gone to England games at home and occasionally away for many years in the past and been fully into supporting in a big way. Don't know why that's the case, I'd actually quite like to feel it like others do. I voted "no" for this but I might get something as a gift for an elderly person I know who has one decent non-tat piece of memorabilia for every major royal event - coronations, weddings, jubilees - going back to George IV in 1820 so I might have lied about buying nothing, but if I do it won't be for me!

A beautifully crafted extra day off,god bless the Queen.

As a photographer, this event is not to be missed, myself and Mrs Shingle are going up the night before and sleeping somewhere along the mall to bag our spot for parade

I wore this badge at school for the Silver Jubilee. Caused quite the stir back then, It was definitely going against the feeling at the time, these days not quite so much. I see they have re released it.

We’re not allowed cameras where we are, but I hope I can get some good photos with my phone.

Next Thursday is a day to celebrate

20 years to the day since I first met Mrs Zef (nee Tedebear) via this place.

I was quite touched when it was announced we would get a bank holiday to celebrate.

 

[A1X]

No memorabilia but I shall be spending next Thursday morning sitting down to watch someone who has worked hard for all our benefit enjoying a day at an institution hallowed in the culture of this country and who has gone on for far longer than anyone could have imagined but is still doing a fantastic job.

Unless England bat first in the Lord's test, in which case Jimmy Anderson might not bowl until Thursday afternoon.

No, I've yet to find a suitable cake.

No definitely not.

Bravo Zulu, enjoy

Cheers. I bought 40th Falklands anniversary badge from the RBL. It's very well done, with a map of the Islands on the reverse.
