Princess Diana

1989

I was very excited to go and get a glimpse of the Princess. I got my two sons dressed up in smart little outfits and we made our way to Jaywick. The traffic was hectic and parking was a struggle but we eventually found somewhere.

The crowds were like nothing I had ever seen before just a sea of people. As I had my two sons with me we able to get near the front, I remember standing there with Diana about 2 yards in front of me. I was simply in awe of her. She was just so welcoming and took the time to speak to as many people in the crowd as she could, accepting flowers and acknowledging as many people as possible. It is something that I still remember fondly.
