would you like your children to have "tea with the queen"

[tiredemma]

to celebrate queens b/day, selected children are being invited to buck palace for a garden party with the queen, and lots of childrens bokk writers.

cant do links but is on the cbeebies website.

HRH - yes I did gather that I would let him meet the band as I used to be a fan in my youth...But I guess with a name like yours, you are a fan of the woman in her 80's ?

no - the history of my name is somewhat different to that. I was Gwenick, then QueenOfQuotes (because of my love of 'quoting' people, and then we all went "royal" for a while and I kept my HRH)

Why Gwenick?

because it was the (very unoriginal) username DH and I came up with when we set up a Hotmail account many moons ago

Is your name Gwen then?

how did you guess.........bet you can't guess DH's name

i think it'd be cool, but my kids are too young to qualify .

Noddyholders post was brilliant - could not have put it better

I know of two people who have won - letter arrived with the official stamp. This was about two weeks ago.

Ah - so they've probably been sent out by now.

Has anyone else had a letter with an invite?

Has anyone had a letter with an invite?

nope, not us.

just as well I suppose, my kids would end up being be-headed.

Has any mumsnetter got an invitation? I suppose it's too late now...based on what saffy202 said.

They're now running telly spots on the BBC for a show that was filmed on the day at the event.

I haven't even heard of a single soul who was invited. Just curious - do any of you know anyone who got an invite/went?

No I wouldn't like him to mix with such riff raff. His speech is coming on nicely thank you, don't want him picking up those strangulated vowels

Message withdrawn

No way. Are they supposed to be impressed or something?

Well said Greensleeves

a woman I know and her 4 yr-old have got an invite - on front of local paper. my mum applied for us but I am actually very releieved not to be invited
