Birthday Beacon

Yesterday the weather was perfect here for celebrating Her Majesty the Queen's 90th birthday.  This is one of my favourite pictures of the Queen - isn't she beautiful!


A lovely family photo.


The beacon on the Lyle Hill in Greenock was lit in honour of the occasion.



Love, Liz

She was indeed stunning when she was younger and always dressed beautifully, and is still a very stylish dresser!
We too had a beacon lit on our village green to celebrate, we are very lucky and privileged to have such a dedicated and hard working Queen.
Have a good weekend Liz!

Yes ! I enjoyed watching Prince William and Prince Harry showing old family cine camera ( not sure if that spelt correctly )footage . Delightful filming ...some of it taken by the Queen herself, of the children playing in the garden , on board ship ,beach and snow . Lovely ! :)

Yes these are lovely photos!
I'm thrilled the Queen is doing so well at 90!
We should all hope for such a healthy long life!
Cheers from New York.

Lighting the beacon seems a perfect way to celebrate that occasion. The early pictures of the Queen are always interesting to see. I also think that Prince William looks quite a bit like King George. I'd never thought of that before seeing this photograph.
