a giveaway to celebrate the whole jubilee shenanigans....


now

there will be no sign of any union jacks on anything in this old house of ours this weekend...

wait, wait, wait,
its not because we think the royals are pants, in fact we think that on the whole they do a jolly good job for this fine country of ours...
no, its down to personal choice and our choice is that quite frankly the whole union jack plonked on absolutely everything has got to stop

we also will no doubt not see any of the queen parading her family up and down the river on her swanky new boat either...
we shall be doing other things like cleaning out the duck shed....

but we felt it important to offer a nod towards the excitement of this grand British occasion so have decided to offer you the chance to enter.....

a grand jubilee giveaway without a union jack in sight

in our house we have a queen
this is her

she goes by the name of bean
her full title being queen of the beans beany queen

she is majestic but shy and has occasional moments of complete madness rather like our own dear HRH 

she is also a nifty dresser




so in honour of our very own queen and of course HRH herself you could bag yourself this sweet hound brooch to pin upon your most favourite cardi...


the joy of our sweet hound brooch rather like all those union jack items, is that you can bring it out to adorn your
 "in support of the Olympics" outfit  for as we all know...

..........running is what hounds do best.........

 the winners parcel will also include some other finery not containing any red, white and blue, but i have yet to decide what it will be hence no photograph...

you can give this giveaway a twirl wherever you may be as we will post it worldwide

we are good like that...

to enter just leave us a note in the comment section of this post

good luck to one and all
and have a super super jubilee weekend
