Victoria Tower

Victoria Tower is where The Queen enters the Houses of Parliament for the State Opening. The red canopied area is the terrace of the House of Lords. This is where VIP's are entertained.



Here am I being entertained as a Member of The Royal Institution, earlier this summer. I have always claimed that humility is one of my strongest points! In the words of Our Lady:

The mighty arm of God
scatters the proud in their conceit,
pulls tyrants from their thrones,
and raises the humble.
the Lord fills the starving
and lets the rich go hungry.

I had better watch out!
