It probably took that long to come up with something she would like and wear. I think for the lateness of it was well worth it IMO. PJ --Previous Message-- : I just stumbled upon this article on the : Mappin & Webb Waterford Crystal Brooch : which we saw much of during the recent Irish : State Visit. The article says the brooch was : created starting December and presented : before the Irish State Visit, but I remember : it being mentioned as a gift to mark the : 60th anniversary of the Coronation. Do you : think that was wrong or is it usual for some : of these gifts to be presented a bit late? : : : http://www.independent.ie/regionals/newrossstandard/lifestyle/freds-royal-mail-sparkles-during-visit-30186637.html : :
