LOOKING BACK - THE QUEEN'S VISIT TO BRISTOL IN 1985

I WAS NEVER FORTUNATE ENOUGH TO MEET THE QUEEN. HOWEVER, I DID SEE HER ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS WHEN SHE VISITED BRISTOL. IN 1985 SHE CAME TO BRISTOL TO VISIT THE SS GREAT BRITAIN AND ALSO TO OPEN THE MARITIME HERITAGE CENTRE. THE QUEEN ARRIVED BY ROYAL TRAIN AT TEMPLE MEADS AND THEN TOURED THE CITY DOCKS IN AN OPEN LAUNCH. SHE RETURNED TO TEMPLE MEADS IN A MAROON COLOURED ROLLS ROYCE. THESE ARE THE PHOTOS I TOOK ON THAT DAY. THESE ARE NOW PRECIOUS MEMORIES.
