Here I am at Royal Ascot!

Having a smashing afternoon at the races here at Ladies Day at Royal Ascot.

It's been raining, and it's been gloriously sunny - very changeable but the excitement is catching, and now I've already placed my first bet - any minute now I'll know how I've done!

The Queen was looking fantastic but so was Carol Middleton, perfectly and yet subtly turned out in a beautifully tailored suit and smashing hat. A triumph yet again, and a real inspiration to middle class mums evrywhere !!!!!
