Pageantry

One of the bonuses of working in Eton is our proximity to some pretty special sites; Windsor Castle, the River Thames, Brocas Meadows to name but three. In turn this means that events like today's Magna Carta River Relay pass right by the end of the street, just a few yards from Tastes Deli.  This morning the bridge and tow paths were packed with people despite the drizzle; all eagerly awaiting the arrival of the flotilla and the Gloriana.

Tastes Deli doesn't exactly have a view of the river, but I was lucky enough to be invited into the riverside garden of some friends of mine.  This is what I saw....
