hey friends! if you have a twitter account and a couple of seconds, can you please do me a favor? orlando, florida is in the running to win an epic diamond jubilee street party from virgin airlines! i live within driving distance of orlando, and let me tell you, it would be one massive party if we won. orlando hosts a guy fawkes bonfire night each year, and last year’s event had nearly 3,000 expats & anglophiles in attendance! 

so, if you can do it before midnight, i’d really appreciate it if you’d tweet @VirginAtlantic with the hashtag #RoyalTreatment and tell them you want them to pick orlando. if orlando gets the party i will definitely be going, and you can expect lots of photos! the contest ends at midnight tonight. thanks in advance!! :)

why do i have to live in the us, where they won’t ship most of this stuff? and why does half of it have to be out of stock? and why does it cost nearly $50 to ship anything from there to the us, anyway?? *sigh* 

(i have to give credit to noroomforthepresent for inspiring my lust, by the way - she posted a photo of/link to the box of fudge, which i followed and which ultimately led to my current state of despair.)

Today, as I mark 60 years as your Queen, I am writing to thank you for the wonderful support and encouragement that you have given to me and Prince Philip over these years and to tell you how deeply moved we have been to receive so many kind messages about the Diamond Jubilee. As I dedicate myself anew to your service, I hope we all be reminded of the power of togetherness and the convening strength of family, friendship and good neighbourliness, examples of which I have been fortunate to see throughout my reign and which my family and I look forward to seeing in many forms as we travel throughout the United Kingdom and the wider Commonwealth.
