My family remember this day.

The Queen was supposed to open the Centre, but was ill, so Philip did it.

My Mum got the day off school for it.

The Centre is supposed to be getting refurbished, but hardly anybody uses it anymore.

Well, "Rachooki Embra" was an adequate substitute without a shadow of a doubt. Wish he could hear the comments at 3.49 ("he's jist ordinary"). Yer jist ordinary Philipp!

I remember being taken down to the High Street by our School Teacher to wave a flag at Prince Philip. I remember the car passing. I was six.

Thanks for the comment. I was 17 at the time and we were given the day off to attend. Hope the film brought back some memories
