Has anyone ever gone to wave at the Royals on Christmas Day at Sandringham?

[ChallengingFigureANDUnrulyFlaps]

Hello all

Yes I know this is extremely uncool but I want to tick it off my bucket list. And yes, I know it's August.

I'd be coming from central Scotland. So swithering about whether to drive or take a train and where to stay.

Any tips please?

Thanks

If you haven't booked your hotel yet then Strattons in Swaffham is about 18 miles away, cheaper than a lot of hotels up near the coast and nice.

Obviously this is me OP, not you 😂, but I'd want a nice room to come back to at Christmas.

Is there a way?!

I'm very excited to report back to you all! Already planning what coat/boots to wear. Gotta be practical but also wanna look nice for my big moment!

I waved at QEII when she passed about 10 feet away during the Silver Jubilee tour. She waved back in my general direction, though I think it was more a casual "hello plebs" thing rather than aimed specifically at me.

Not sure if or how this radically altered the course of my life if I'm honest. I think it might have been slightly more memorable had she bothered to wear the magic hat.

what a load of petty responses from grown ass women! Shocking!!! No advice op but you do you, what a boring world it would be if we all liked the same things 🤦🏻‍♀️

Don't know. I had a very quick look for services at the church, didn't find much but it was a quick look. I think I found the email address for the church though. I would email and ask them. I think it would be really bad if the regular church goers all got booted out on Christmas day for the Royals so I expect they still go (?)

Hope you have a lovely time op & get a wave from the Royals. Will keep an eye out for you & your tiara in the press 😊

That sounds so very lovely 😊
