HUDDERSFIELD is getting its flags out and making last-minute preparations before the visit of the Queen and Prince Philip tomorrow.
We're sure the response will prove that the allure of the royal family is still strong. We'll all be wanting to see them.
Many will have seen the giant stage being put up in St George's Square for the People's Prom tomorrow night and the People's Concert the following evening.
Full marks to Kirklees Council for adding to the sense of occasion by staging the events. They've done exactly the right thing in creating the party atmosphere.
Whoever thought of it deserves credit.
We can only cross our fingers and hope the weather is kind.
