The Mistress had always wanted to visit Kensington Palace,
not only to see the wonderful building and all the history it contains, but
also to see the ‘Diana Dresses’ exhibition. On talking to other Consorts in the
Company she found that they did too so she organised a visit. And what a lovely
day they had!
We are very lucky in having as a Court Assistant Christine
Jarvis who is a London Blue Badge Guide and as such gave them their own private
tour of the Palace and exhibition. As a party of 12 they could move easily
amongst the displays and ask questions of Christine. She answered every one and
more!
If you haven’t been then the Mistress strongly advise you to
do so; it’s fascinating. The dresses are but one of the very interesting things
to see at the Palace and a two-hour tour hardly did justice to all that history.
A wonderful visit.
But after all that culture and it being near Christmas there
was only one thing that could follow – lunch at the Ivy Brasserie down the
road! A lovely meal and in such great company. Well done girls!
