Gloriana

Gloriana is a 94ft barge that was commissioned as a tribute to the Queen for her diamond jubilee. This is the vessel that lead the pageant on the Thames.
It was paid for and organised by Lord Sterling (he's done loads of good stuff for the common people as well), based on Prince Charlie's idea - he's always looking for ways to "please Mummy".

It looks a bit sad sitting there all alone reflecting on recent glories.

Oh, it is absolutely wonderful. How do you get a close up look? I will go and have one myself, if I can.

It's a gorgeous vessel (I'm sure Mummy was pleased!) - I love the soft light, makes Gloriana seem romantically mysterious and remote.
