I am one of those who have not responded to Joye's messages for 2 reasons.

1. I decided to post only on the other board.

2. For most of the last 12 months, my health has been an issue.

When I saw Joye's post in May 2024 asking if anyone had photos of QEII wearing the Reddendo brooch, I knew that I was probably the only one who had taken note of this brooch.

I had the images Joye, but my health meant I didn't have a lot of energy.

I have done a post on the other board at

And also on Instagram at

I am sure that everyone has seen my earlier posts on the Reddendo.
