8th March 2012 – A Royal Visit


Today was a pretty long and exciting day, why you ask? Because The Queen, Prince Philip, AND Kate Middleton came to my university! Now its not everyday you can say that is it? My day started horribly early, and involved standing out in the cold for 4 & 1/2 hours to see a glimpse of the Queen, but honestly it was such an amazing experience. The last two pictures shown here were taken by me, and you can see how far back I was, and how many people turned up to see the Royal’s. The Queen & Kate looked stunning as ever. It was such an amazing event, and I’ve never felt prouder to be a De Montfort Uni Student. It’s definitely a day I’ll never forget.
