Some things you only know about The Queen if you're British

Congratulations to any overseas visitors who were in Britain to see us at our most British last weekend. But you may be wondering: what does it all MEAN?

In this travel blog, I’m going to write about last weekend’s Platinum jubilee, which marked the Queen’s 70 years on the throne. I think this is the right subject for a travel blog, even though I won’t be offering tips on which castles to tick off and which royal events to attend (though if you get the chance to visit the Braemar Highland Gathering, do).
