A few years ago I bought a tie pin made from one of the Maundy coins she gave out on the day. I don't wear it, but it is a nice little memory.

I don't have strong opinions about the Royal family, but I think I lean more towards being a Monarchist than a Republican. I think she has done a very good job over her reign.

The photo only came to light a few years ago. I'd met Sally when I used to work in the Theatre in my late teens and we've been friends ever since. She's the one with the flowers. She popped the photo on FB and I spotted my bowl haired moon face behind her.
