Over 50 years of pain,pleasure,frustration,joy,heartache and ecstasy that supporting Leigh has given me but I would not swop it.: |
|
| Quote: Leyther_Matt "Wouldn't define 50 yards away as 'close up', personally.'"
Closer than the usual 200 plus miles that the Queen is usually situated.
Don't forget shes 80 and the Dukes over 90, they are hardly likely to do a lap of honour.
I can't beleive I'm defending the Royals as I'm normally one of their biggest critics. |

The question was regarding how close the kids were, speaking is another matter all together,and a few words would of been nice.

Right, Andrew, you're on! Next time any royals attend our home matches, I'll be looking for a page in the programme - including photos. As for your fee - well, I'm a co-editor, so it's only right that you get a percentage of what I'm on!

The wife managed to get some piccies, I for one was glad she came and glad I was there for the occassion, and every kid I have spoken to on the day, before, or since were made up the queen came to Leigh and those that saw her will not forget it, well done council for getting her here, well done LSV management for the reception you gave her, its no wonder the town has gone to pot with some of the comments about the visit on here.
