Jubilee Party in Ellesmere

The Royal Crown rises over The Mere

Not Completely Blonde

"Prince Harry" fights The Dragon

WOW!!!! Just got back from the Ellesmere Jubilee Party..& what a party!
More than a thousand of us started having a picnic in the park with lots of flags & champagne, leading to great entertainment from local bands (Lakelands School seems to be churning out recording artists!). Following the National Anthem we all looked to The Mere to see the Jubilee beacon being lit on a floating raft. Then a huge flaming crown rising on high, followed by an extravaganza of fireworks over the water....all set to familiar patriotic rousing tunes like Pomp and Circumstance! Wonderful!
