Do you remember the Coronation?

An Introduction

With the celebrations in 2012 of HM the Queen's Diamond Jubilee, I thought it might be a good idea to start a blog to collect everyone's memories of the Coronation.

Obviously, the memories will come from persons of a certain age!

I appreciate that the actual coronation was on 2nd June 1953, while the Queen ascended the throne on 6th February 1952 on the death of her father, George VI.


Please make any contributions which you think appropriate and leave a real name (if you wish), the location of your celebration and an email address so that people can contact you if they had similar experiences in similar locations.

Since creating this blog, I have moved everyone's memories to the site linked above:
doyourememberthecoronation.org.uk

Please go there and read what people have written and make a contribution.
