You're probably right.

But to be serious, if someone had been waiting for hours to see them, they might be a bit peeved if Her Maj had nipped off out of sight!

"The formal river procession will be between 2pm and 6pm, starting upriver of Battersea Bridge and finishing downriver of Tower Bridge. The boats will muster between Hammersmith and Battersea and disperse from Tower Bridge to West India Docks."

son just phoned me - very excited - watching BBC1 coverage of the Jubilee events [surprise to me that he's watching it] and they've just been to his road in York for a street party - the house is rented out now and they live near me but it's good to see the house again!!! Hollybank Road, York

I'm watching it, my gt gts were lightermen and watermen on the Thames, and soft as it may sound I feel quite 'connected' to the river pageant today :-D I'd quite like to have gone, but probably a better view on telly.
