Hi everyone

Sorry I haven't been around but since losing my husband lee on 7th February 2024 the last few months have been really tough

But I wanted to share where I had the honour of going last Tuesday which was the King's Garden party at Buckingham Palace

Apart from it raining it was fantastic day

Wow @marybottomley what an amazing thing to do!!!!!!!!!

I hope you had a great time and made some life long memories

Well done for going as well, I imagine that would be quite nerve racking for someone without any disabilities, but especially so if you have anxiety or something
