Well the town was taken over by the media and security people and I was told by a certain son of mine who works at the uni that they wouldn’t be doing a walk-about, so I didn’t bother going. To be honest though I would have had to get on a bus and I’ve already been on one this week. Believe it or not at 8.30 this morning it was chucking it down with rain and that was the clincher in my decision not to go to St Andrews.

Anyway, if you’re interested in William and Catherine’s visit and launch of the 600 year anniversary celebrations and appeal there are 50 photographs of it which you can view here.
