They're Changing Guards at Buckingham Palace






Look what my mum sent me, a booklet of embroidery transfers for George VI's coronation (1937) found amongst my grandma's sewing things.

I think I might frame a few of these.

  1. My mother used to sing me that song...

    They're changing guards at Buckingham Palace. Christopher Robin went down with Alice. Alice is marrying one of the guards- "A guard's life is terribly hard", says Alice.

    Beautiful find, and nice memory!
