Thank you Malcolm, the jester is certainly appreciated. It’s refreshing to see that our Traditions are being kept alive. Grandma would be so very proud.
Have a Happy Easter!

Send the lilies to a sick patient in KEMH to brighten up their day and to cover the nasty smell in that place.

However, there is no good reason for the English Governor to be involved in this photo op picking flowers for his boss.

Surely a photo of Bermudians is more appropriate.

Desilva farms and Wadsoms all have sent lillies to the queen, i know of one retired farmer who for 20 years sent lillies to the queen and never got as much as a thank you note! these faremers give thees lillies for FREE and to top it all off the farmer still has to pay the government plant inpection officer to issue a permitt stating the lillies are pest free!!!

What happened to the photo of one little black girl and one little white girl picking the lillies? I hope Her Majesty enjoys her lillies.
