Any thoughts on this or maybe I have missed a thread already started? We would need a big Park such as Hyde (probably already taken) or somewhere in the centre of the country to help all travellers.
Travelling on H Potter broomsticks would be fun and with such a range of GNetters skills, everyone could produce something, whether food, games, clothing.....or, maybe we should just plan further ahead to the Olympics, offering an alternative.grin

That sounds brilliant fun...will we have beacons and torches,and a giant conga,perhaps her maj will throw open Buck house and join in as well...do you think Phil will come or is he still poorly..he could always come up and stay at sandringham if he dosent want the noise....it is my Diamond jubilee in December perhaps we could have a joint party....please NO DOGS they cause no end of trouble self combusting especially with all the beacons and torhes aroundgrin

I shall be virtually absent from any such shenanigans. I don't do royal thingies.

Understood absentgrana but my alternative was Olympics, which might be preferable for many as the Diamond Jubilee is possibly oversubscribed anyway.

Sorry Anagram, I really meant virtual to the GNs who don't do parties, but I see what you meant!

China? Annikan

You can have the VP in the centre of the country, plenty of room on the Malvern Hills and nothing to get in the way of the broomsticks at that altitude.
