It was one of the largest flotillas ever assembled on the river, with rowed boats, working boats and pleasure vessels of all shapes and sizes beautifully dressed and turned out in their finest rigs.




5 girls from 19th and 20th Enfiled Rangers volunteered at the Themes Diamond Jubilee Pageant, they had a brilliant time selling programmes.

Phoebe Lambdon 15 - "Had a lovely time despite bleeding on thea programme and having to sell it to Alice (one of the other helpers) I managed to sell 96 programmes and had a once in a lifetime experience"

Louise Adlam 16 - "it was great fun selling the programmes.  It was nice to see people from around the world all celebrating together"

Alice Gould - 17 (turned 18 on Monday) "It was a grat priviledge to take part and it was great to service the Queen as I promised when I joined Girlguiding! A great opportunity" 

2 girls - Jane Neal and Leah Attwell, both 16, helped with mustering which involved helping the rowers prepare.  Jane said "I would say that it was definitely a great expereince.  It is not something that comes along often"
