I’m going on a picnic today but took a detour to the tail end of Trooping the Colour: Gloriously sunny day The crowds are always big, but today they were huge! I’m always interested to see the wide range of people at these royal events. Young, old, male, female, white, black, brown, Londoners, northerners, locals, tourists – you name it, every group was there The 10/15 anti king people were enthusiastically shouted down with renditions of God Save the King and funny but unrepeatable calls for them to, er, get lost! I met some young French women who loved it all. ‘We only have Macron,’ they sighed! I missed the King and Queen going by but caught a glimpse of the Princess of Wales, Princess Charlotte, Prince George and Prince Louis. Their carriage got the biggest cheer from the crowd. ‘I love Kate’ sighed many excited young women. Crowd management was not great- maybe because there were so many people. Overall, one of the best Trooping the Colour events.
