	We spent a fortnight in camp away from the hospitals when the QA were on the Florence Nightingale centenary parade in 1954. We practised marching etc until we were dropping, but we were also inspected by Princess Margaret who was our commander in Chief. She stood in front of me and came up to about my shoulder, a tiny little woman , but it was one of the proudest days of my life, will never forget it. Jean

	Caz, I know how proud you must be feeling, my hubby was presented to Prince Charles at a Garden party at Hillsborough Castle in Northern Ireland during his last year of 23 years service. If you are worried about having to wear a hat, why not go for a fascinator. You can get them either on a comb, a hair band or on a grip-like slide. BHS, House of Frasier, Debenhams and Accessorise all stock them and the ones at BHS this year are really nice. Hope you have a lovely day and don't forget the piccies, Make sure you get one of you and hubby together. Well done G Helen

	Brilliant news Caz. Instead of wearing a hat you could have some sort of flower in your hair. Hats and I don't get on. where will you go to buy your posh frock? you have remembered we are up there next week haven't you? Ann Glos

	Such an honour. What a special day you'll have. I'm really pleased for you and your family. You'll want to be comfortable, even if you are all dressed up, so think about the type of material too. Don't want you wilting in a heat wave, ...if ever we get one. Long-range weather forecast someone??? I symathise re.hats. I can never get one to fit me either. I've never done it, but some say you get a good choice if you hire one. This might be a way for you if it is not likely to be worn again. Gwyn
