Pink Saturday!

The Queen Mum and I share the same birthday, August 4th!
And she's wearing PINK!!!!
This is a photo from the 90s, before photoshop!!!!
My DH took a picture of me in St Paul's Cathedral in front of a poster display. I added the white glove of Queen Mum tucked under my arm!
Makes us chums ! The scarf under neath the pansy celebrates the 100th birthday of my friend!!!!

In the 70s and 80s, scarves were the essential accessory! So I went back to see what I had 25-30 years ago!

My apologies to Cat Stevens!
