This weekend has me remembering the past. 1977 jubilee. i was attending a street party aged 8. good times. can anyone else remember that year? what were you doing? (thats if you were born!) mark
I spoke to the Queen when she visited Ely that year, She stopped and asked me if I lived in Ely. I was so taken aback that I lied, saying Yes I did, a beheading offence in days off old!!!! During that visit, Mike's sister, Marie officially presented the Queen with a bouquet of flowers, at the time that she was planting a memorial tree at the Maltings near the river. ^^ All seems a long time ago now.

Best thing about 1977, apart from the uk was a nice place to live, (xmas not commercial, shops closed on a sunday, no mobiles, not as many disrespectful teenagers etc) was the release os Star wars . I remember seeing it at the cinema on the day it was released in may 1977. see it about 60 times since! Mark
