Hello from Nellie. When growing up in Australia I was interested in the coronation and that started an interest in royal things. The coronation scrapbook has long since gone to some rubbish tip somewhere but I still have some of the books about the Princesses. The intricate pieces of royal regalia continued to fascinate, but it was not until I discovered the RJWMB that my interest in royal jewels worn by the ladies really took off. I have learned so much by sharing with other enthusiasts on this board. So many many jewels are still worn today and we get to see them as we should - being worn and not just photographed from under glass in static museum displays. The Royal Jewels documentary is a milestone in the recorded history of the most famous royal jewels worn today. Bravo! The diamond exhibition at BP will be another milestone I believe. In retirement I volunteer with U3A and am quite busy with that work. The U3A movement started in France in 1973 - you can google U3A. When I have finished the bulk of my work for the start of the new term I want to teach myself image software all over again, and properly, and get back to making some banners and panels.
