MAYOR of Liskeard Christina Whitty and her husband Terry were delighted to be invited to the May 15 Queen’s Garden Party.

Hundreds of guests attended the first of three such events to be held at Buckingham Palace this summer.

Guests nominated by Palace contacts are chosen from people who have given service in many different ways to their communities.

Liskeard’s mayor said that the weather, as well as the whole day itself, had been ‘glorious’.
