The Queen’s Platinum Jubilee

If you were not aware of it before, a milestone for the British monarchy takes place over the next four days. Queen Elizabeth II is the longest serving monarch in history; on 2 June it will be seventy years since she became queen. 

The country is having a long bank holiday weekend to celebrate, with countless activities taking place - think garden parties, street parties, state occasions, the lighting of over 1500 beacons not just in the UK but also across the Commonwealth countries, too. 

The 7Percent household is having a champagne tea party for some of our closest village friends. There are three street parties and a summer jubilee ball taking place in our village, just some of the thousands of similar events taking place all over the country.

She may be 96, but QEII is remarkably savvy to modern trends.
