    (Transcribed and Typed by Pat Glenie. Spelling and punctuation is not mine). April 1985. THE DIARY OF CHARLOTTE A BESLEY 1st January 1887 Bleak Hive, Port Augusta. Saturday 1st January 1887. Wishing you a very bright prosperous and happy Year. The day dawned very pleasantly but afterwards became extremely warm. We all drove to church about ten and met a number of people returning who told us that the priest had been called away two hundred miles and that we would not have service either today or tomorrow. It is rather sad to begin the New Year so, but it cannot be helped. We then drove home and adjourned to the drawing room where we read our Mass prayers, Papa, the boys and I reading aloud alternately. Then after dinner Charlie Hancorne came up and read a lecture on the Music of Ireland to us and I am sorry to say that Papa and I fell asleep but only for a few minutes. It was so hot and we were lounging so comfortably. About four o'clock the children and I packed a hamper while the boys got the buggys ready and we drove down to Port Patterson and boiled the kettle and had tea on the beach, after which Papa set the children racing for small moneys and we bigger ones walked down to a boat and sat and talked a while. Then returned home as we had come out. Jim driving some of the children and I in a buggy with one horse and Papa behind in his own big tilted one and a pair of horses.

    Address by Her Majesty The Queen to Òraid le A Mòrachd A’ Bhanrigh gus celebrate the 20th Anniversary of the 20mh ceann-bliadhna Pàrlamaid Scottish Parliament na h-Alba a chomharrachadh 29 June 2019 Introduction It is with great pleasure that, on behalf of the Scottish Parliament, I welcome Her Majesty The Queen, His Royal Highness The Duke of Rothesay and all our invited guests to this special 20th anniversary ceremony. We come together today to commemorate two decades of the Scottish Parliament, a significant milestone for our country. I am delighted that so many people from across Scotland and beyond are able to join us in our Debating Chamber to hear the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland; the National Youth Choir of Scotland; the singer Karen Matheson; and Jackie Kay, Scots Makar. Throughout this year of commemoration, we have sought to reflect on the positive difference the Scottish Parliament has made to the lives of the people of Scotland. Having been founded on the principles of openness and equality, I am proud to say that these principles continue to inspire and challenge us today. As part of our birthday celebrations, we will open our doors for an afternoon of activities and, looking back at two decades of achievements, there will be live music, dance and theatre from a wide range of performers. We are proud of how far the Parliament has come but recognise that this anniversary has also allowed us to focus on ensuring that the Parliament is relevant and fit for purpose for the next 20 years. Thank you for the support you have given us and I hope you enjoy today’s events.
