Crowns and Tiaras Walk

The Monday Walkers wore crowns and tiaras for yesterday's walk in the rain! There were a few soggy crowns at the end of it. Appropriately, we walked on the Balmoral Estate past the Bridge over the Garbh Allt (where, allegedly, the late Duke proposed to the late Queen) and with a coffee stop at the Honka Hut (given to the late Queen by the people of Finland).

We had a photoshoot on the Church Green, beside the Living Willow Crown, the detail of which I posted a couple of weeks ago. Here you can see it in full. The green shoots are getting more and more numerous. Quite fascinating to watch.

Nice tradition, but after 70 years, it's good to know you can still remember to do it!

What a great fun shoot! Looking forward to seeing the crown turn into a work of art :-)

Great way to celebrate & who doesn’t love wearing a tiara? Looks a happy group despite the rain & the first thing I noticed were the black over trousers! We’ve been through a few of those in our time!!
