Royal gif party

The Queen's Diamond Jubilee was a couple of days ago, not that I really noticed with almost every second tweet in my feed dedicated to it. I don't think throughout my education I learnt that much about the Queen or her significance but I've always thought she was really cute and have always wanted to hug her. She's absolutely adorable.

I watched A Jubilee Tribute to The Queen by the Prince of Wales and wondered for a second what it'd be like to be part of that family. Old films just do things to me - the grain, the colouring, the frames per minute - I get this overwhelming sense of nostalgia and I can spend hours wallowing in it. My family only has one album which kind of documented about three years but then digital cameras came along and we didn't print any of our photos out. The photos are probably long gone, on a hard drive, probably never to be opened again or, more likely, going to be smashed in a rubbish tip. I suppose watching this was me kind of living vicariously through their holidays. How ambitious of me. If only I was that ambitious with other pursuits.







One of the greatest dances ever.
