Hi Janet! It really was a lovely festive day - and it smelt festive, too! Lots of mulled wine, hot chocolate, and cinnamon wafting around! Haha! Thank you so much for watching, lovely, I do hope you're keeping well! Qxxx

[@elijahloxton3916]

Thanks so much Queenie. The season is indeed underway!

[@QueenieofLondon]

Thabk YOU, Elijah, for keeping me company! There was an opera singer down Sloane Street, but she clashed with the Pensioners 😀 Hope you've had a great start to the week! Qxxx

Hello Queenie! Robin and I enjoyed all the music and the lights and the fireworks--the steel drum band was one of our favorite parts. It was wonderful watching everyone get into their performance. Thanks as always for sharing with us all the festivities in great detail--we know we're never missing anything when we watch your videos. Hoping you and your mum are doing well. Best!

[@QueenieofLondon]

Hello to you both and a big thank you for keeping me company for the switch on! I'm so happy you enjoyed seeing what was going on, the steel drums made me imagine a Christmas on the beach with a nice cocktail :) Thank you so much for your kind wishes- we both send hugs your way! QXxx

Hello Queenie from Michigan. Thank you for sharing. Was so good I watched twice. Loved the Bandstand singers. Looking forward to your Vlogmas🎄🎁

[@QueenieofLondon]

Oh, Bonnie, THANK YOU so much! I'm delighted you enjoyed it - i really wish we could keep the little bandstand up there on the square - it's a lovely addition. Nothing makes me happier than the sound of Christmas carollers! Hope you've had a great start to the week, lovely! Qxxx

[@CJordan-s8y]

Queenie , I’ve been feeling sad about being unable to come to London this year. This video brought me so much joy! Thank you.

[@richardsmall8122]

Ah I really enjoyed your festive wander. As a result of one of your previous vlogs we explored all around pavilion road in the summer on our last London trip. Had never been down it before so that was thanks to you and it will now be a regular stop off. Looking forward to the rest of vlogmas. 🎅🏻 🤶🏻 🎄

[@QueenieofLondon]

Aww! That makes me happy to read, Richard! It's such a pretty little road, and it's such a little hive of activity up there. Good ice cream in the summer, too! Hehe! Thank you for coming along with me, i do hope you are keeping well! Qxxx

[@richardsmall8122]

@@QueenieofLondon ps. The Sloane Square bandstand really reminds me of Dolly Partons Christmas on the square. 😊 x

[@QueenieofLondon]

@richardsmall8122 That's so true!! I think we should keep it permanently! And maybe a statue of Dolly?! They used to have a bandstand in Bishops Park in Fulham overlooking the river, it was beautiful. They demolished it and made the space into a basketball court! Xx

[@richardsmall8122]

@ ha ha maybe you can run a personal campaign for a dolly statue! Maybe do a sequel ‘Queenie on the square’ fundraiser to get if off the ground. 🤣 Sad to hear the demise of the Bishops park stand. Makes you wonder who makes these decisions. Enjoy the rest of your week and keep the posts coming. X

[@QueenieofLondon]

@richardsmall8122 That sounds like a grand plan, Richard. One for the new year 😀 Thank you - you too! I'm looking forward to getting started on my next video after work today! Xx

[@Jesuscares7680]

Another top-notch video.. Chelsea sure knows how to celebrate.. what a classy place.. and also the man singing with the band..sounded like Frank Sinatra stuff to me.. Wonderful🎉 They sure put on the Ritz❤.. Thank you immensely for sharing😁

[@barrywa39]

A most enjoyable vlog Miss Q. Sloane Street was looking spiffing, I like the idea of songs and soup. The Pensioners were most excellent, as was the swing band. The switch on seemed to be more subdued compared to last year. xxx

[@tgvettes]

my house is all decorated inside. decorating the outside this week

[@QueenieofLondon]

Wow! That's amazing work! I bet you had a great time decking the halls, lovely. Good luck with the outside, I bet it will look fab-yule-ous! ♡ I'm hoping to start on my tree tomorrow ♡ Qxxx

[@tgvettes]

@@QueenieofLondon the outside of my house used to look like Griswalds but the neighborhood I am in now doesn't allow that 😀😂

[@QueenieofLondon]

@tgvettes They don't allow it?! Wow! There are places here that put their foot down, too. :😞 Haha - as soon as I hear Griswold, I hear "why is the carpet all wet Todd? - I don't KNOW Margot!" The BEST Christmas film! Qxxx

[@DesertRat-y6b]

Love your videos. What camera do you use?

[@QueenieofLondon]

Thank you so much! That's really kind of you! I mainly use my Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra. Qxxx
