If so, what are your items to be included?

We're having

Cheese scones
Fruit scones
Victoria sponge
Another cake to be decided

Some form of sandwich - not sure whether to do crustless or cute mini rolls.

Fillings to be decided and hopefully get some inspiration from this thread.

Prosecco and soft drinks

We have an appointment for DD at 12 so we're going to have a picnic somewhere since everywhere will be closed. I might go for something a bit fancier than I had planned thanks to some of these ideas.

Nope, normal working day in theNHS so I’ll be even lucky to have any lunch never mind a high tea.

Might even rustle up another "Jubilee" trifle!

Drywhitefruitycidergin · 17/09/2022 15:23

Yes! Cucumber, egg mayo & ham & mustard sandwiches, pork pie seconds, sausage rolls, scones, Victoria sponge & lemon slices.
Tea & possibly fizz

We’re having afternoon tea and have friends coming over to join us for the day. I wanted to go to Windsor and watch them arrive but think it will be too busy and won’t get to see anything. I’ve been to London this weekend so that’s enough..

Sandwiches - egg, tuna, cream cheese and cucumber
Scones
Victoria sandwich

"Dogwalk with friends after the funeral followed by afternoon tea ... cucumber sandwiches, scones and victoria sponge! Cheers to Her Maj for a long life well lived 👑"

The dogs would've been desperate to get out by then and all of you starving! We had ours just after she left London, couldn't have waited until after the funeral.
