the 3rd of June, over 100 Lache Lane Residents stood for several hours, shoulder to shoulder in the wind and rain in solidarity with the Queen and Prince Philip. Luckily, we weren’t stuck on a boat, and so there was plenty of food, drink and competitions to keep everyone occupied whilst they met and chatted to neighbours who in many cases they had never met before.
Great fun was had by all, as the following photographs show. Not just at the party, but during the “team building” activities of tent erection, sandwich making, and table decoration.
More bunting, drinks, cakes, scones etc. were donated than you can possibly imagine. There was even a “History of Lache Lane” display prepared by a local historian.
We just need to find an excuse to do it again!
