We were not sure how we could best pay tribute to our late Queen but thought that to re-erect the banner we had for the Platinum Jubilee celebration would be a fitting symbol as indeed have several others.

None of us had the honour to meet this wonderful lady personally but nonetheless cannot help but feel a tremendous sadness at her passing. We join the Royal Family and the Nation as we mourn the loss of a remarkable person who selflessly dedicated her life to serve her Country and the Commonwealth.

Rest in peace Your Majesty.
You were, and still are, an inspiration to us all.
