This weekend I was lucky enough to attend Royal Ascot, which I now want to make an annual event with my friends!
It was probably the most British event I have ever attended, fascinators, coat and tails and more Pimms than anyone could possibly drink. We were in the Grandstand section of the venue so had a great view of the races and even spotted her Royal Majesty a couple of times!
Now I'm not a betting person and am not particularly keen on racing but it was quite fun to put on a few pounds and join in with the crowds as the horses went by. Though to be honest I think people were there for the atmosphere and the fashion as opposed to the racing itself!
Overall it was a great day and from what I could tell the event ran very smoothly. Friendly staff, good signage and fun times had by all.. I definitely recommend going if you ever get the chance.
