“I spent quite a bit of time talking to the Queen which was great. She was absolutely lovely and so easy to talk to. She asked to be shown all around the memorial which I was surprised at, she seemed genuinely interested about how it was made and where the stone came from.

“The whole day was wonderful and it couldn’t have gone any better.”
