The Princess Royal from today's Engagements and Memorial in Lockerbie.Princess Anne visited the Lockerbie Air Disaster Memorial today, March 25:
I know and lifted the tree herself before plating it!Typical no nonsense Princess Anne- when planting the ceremonial tree she is not just going to place it in the hole and walk away, she asks for a shovel to secure it in properly and is given a tiny hand trowel...her reaction?
"No the bigger one"
Love it.
Around 30 each year it says on the official websiteThe Princess is rather busy with all those investitures. How many are there on a yearly basis?
Around 30 Investitures are held each year, and over sixty recipients attend each ceremony, either in the Throne Room at Buckingham Palace, or in the Grand Reception Room at Windsor Castle. Investitures also happen occasionally at the Palace of Holyroodhouse in Edinburgh, or overseas during State or Royal visits.
