It's Platinum Jubilee weekend for the Playmobil people in our house...

[SoMuchToBits]

... and so I'm bringing you four days of celebrations in Playmoland. Today is King Athelstan's birthday parade. The route has been lined with bunting.

Brilliant as always!

Thank you, that’s so cute

Fab, rather more colourful than St Paul's

Thank you, although Playmoland didn't have a robed choir or a fab band or all those Beefeaters...

Your creativity more than compensates!

Thank you! I'm very pleased I bought those fanfare trumpets for the October 2018 wedding. They came in very handy for today's scenes!

Hurrah for Lady Marden Wye. I used to commute to London on that line, from the next station to Marden!

Staplehurst or Headcorn? I have Playmo knights with both those names!

Staplehurst.
Please can Sir Staplehurst feature soon?!

I'll have to find somewhere to use Sir Staplehurst Lydd! Sir Headcorn Blean was present in the Birthday Parade (in the infantry).

Maybe he could run the bar at the Platinum Concert!

Hmm, I hadn't thought of a bar for the concert... Probably a bit late for that now!

But here is Sir Staplehurts Lydd.

He's my pin up.
(I don't live there any more)

There will be a couple of events tomorrow, so hope to see you all there!

Oh this is glorious! Thanks so much OP! Your magnificent lockdown thread kept me entertained in 2020 when I was shielding for months and my dad died. Your threads are so wholesome and happy. DH asked just yesterday “is there a Jubilee playmo thread by any chance?”

Thank you @CatkinToadflax , it means a lot when people post their comments and their relatives have enquired about the possibility of Playmo threads!

Thank you also to everyone else who has commented. Sorry I haven't had time to reply to everyone individually, but all your comments are most welcome and have made all the work of producing the scenes so worthwhile!

I love the Playmo threads, this one is probably my favourite. So, so clever. Thank you!

Thank you! I do spend hours planning this stuff, but that's all part of the fun!

Love the name of the Prime minister 😂

@SpringCalling thats not just his name! He actually was a foreman before he was elected Prime Minister. He has proved his excellent leadership skills and all-round capabilities in all sorts of situations over the years. I expect he’s doing a grand job of running things in Playmoland.

*that’s

Thank you @NiqueNique yes, Norman was originally elected (by MN people) way back in 2010. He has continued to work hard for Playmoland, and unlike some PMs is actually an honest person!

Clever cheerful & sweet as always Thank you
