Wow. Absolutely resplendent!

the shots down the mall are fabulous

Place marking
I hope they can do the fly past

MESHWIASH · 06/05/2023 13:27

I feel torn between watching it on TV or going out and seeing what's going on in around my area.

LIZS · 06/05/2023 13:27

Assume those in the parade, perhaps plus Prince Michael and Princess Alexandra, are the balcony party. Any update on the flypast yet?

Sugarfree23 · 06/05/2023 13:27

Does anyone know if the troops on parade have ammo to go with the guns?

LlynTegid · 06/05/2023 13:27

Sad to report that Claire Balding has been given outdated information. About the national park that the Prince and Princess of Wales visited in the week.

It's Bannau Brycheiniog.

Good to see the crowd cheering for the marchers in the Parade just as loudly as for the RF.It's their moment to shine too.

I've been listening to the radio commentary on BFBS, it's been really good, felt the emotion.

Love watching the marching bands.

Or she used the name that English speakers, who can’t speak Welsh use

That wobbly coach bad for the piles

MrsFinkelstein · 06/05/2023 13:30

Amazing formation move from the Royal Navy to narrow the flank!

LIZS · 06/05/2023 13:30

James Wessex/Edinburgh has donned a top hat!

Barbadossunset · 06/05/2023 13:32

Prince Louis looks adorable waving from the coach

mixedrecycling · 06/05/2023 13:32

You can see the sway off that gold carriage..

I walked down the Mall last night. Those people have been there hours waiting for something to happen. They even cheered the a truck going past with portaloos last night.

Bouledeneige · 06/05/2023 13:32

Do you think the family bought their mobile phones?

James Wessex/Edinburgh has donned a top hat! I hope he's not the only one, perhaps Mike Tindall and Timothy Lawrence will do the same? (Or is Lawrence in uniform?).

What did the Wales all bow at then?

Bored of the military-ness now

"They even cheered the a truck going past with portaloos last night."

Quite right too.

There are statues of the Queen Mother and King George VI about there. Could it have been that?

Bouledeneige · 06/05/2023 13:33

Was the fly past due for 2.30 if it happens?

True! Probably the most helpful person all night.
