In honour of her 500th good deed during the platinum jubilee weekend we decided to crown our own "GG Queen Elizabeth" at the SHP allotment mission. It began with "The Long Mile Walk"' to "Buckingham Shed" where Her Royal GoodGymness handed out alms fudge to all subjects present. Jeweller to the GG Queen, Sharon then presented with her crown.

Never ones to let a small thing like pageantry get in the way of things we soon got to work dividing up the jobs. Sharon waspruning, Liz and Jenny weeding, Ed and James working on the new planter and Linda freeing the rosemary plants from the long grass. We didn't have much time there but still seemed to get a lot done.

Due to an oversight there was no Fly Pass from the "Red Wheelbarrows" but there was a short demo from the GGR cycle acrobatic team AKA James and then we settled down for a celebratory slice of Coronation Caterpillar Cake. On their way home some of the GG Street Tag App' Team then went off to pick up extra Jubilee points by a walk up polytag rich Gordon Road "Mall"

Edit... I was so busy making Royal comparisons, I forgot to say. CONGRATULATIONS LIZ. 🥳🥳🥳 FANTASTIC ACHIEVEMENT.
