Happy new year to all. Queen Elizabeth II is missed in many ways including her vast jewellery collection.

A few glittering banners

I rarely post anymore, but I do check in from time to time. This board and my fellow posters have been very special to me, even long before I began posting in 2008. So much wonderful research and observations were shared here over the years. I would like to contribute some glitter in the form of some of my favorite banners I created in the past. Happy new year to you all!

Great to see you again Baxter. I will always remember your wonderful graphic guide to the Cullinans. (I wonder where Boffer is.)
