LOCAL SOLICITORS – TERRY MOORE AND HUGO MOORE
A MESSAGE FROM HER MAJESTY THE QUEEN
Today, as I mark 60 years as your Queen, I am writing to thank you for the
wonderful support and encouragement that you have given to me and
Prince Philip over these years and to tell you how deeply moved we have
been to receive so many kind messages about the Diamond Jubilee.
In this special year, as I dedicate myself anew to your service, I hope we
will all be reminded of the power of togetherness and the convening
strength of family, friendship and good neighbourliness, examples of
which I have been fortunate to see throughout my reign and which my
family and I look forward to seeing in many forms as we travel throughout
the United Kingdom and the wider Commonwealth.
I hope also that this Jubilee year will be a time to give thanks for the great
advances that have been made since 1952 and to look forward to the
future with clear head and warm heart as we join together in our
celebrations.
I send my sincere good wishes to you all.
ELIZABETH R.

INTRODUCTION
2012 gives us the opportunity to celebrate the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee –
and a time to reflect on what has been achieved over the last 60 years – a
period when Queen Elizabeth II has proved constant during great changes.
Building on the success of previous village festivals, a small band of
volunteers has assembled a range of activities, listed in this programme,
to give as many people as possible the chance to celebrate this
remarkable milestone – one that has only ever been preceded by the
Diamond Jubilee of Queen Victoria.
With this obvious link to Queen Victoria it is fitting that, for the first time
since her Diamond Jubilee in 1897, a Flotilla of sixty vessels will sail up the
River Humber on Monday 4th June. The Riverside Walkway will be a
fantastic vantage point for this once-in-a-lifetime experience, which
promises to be a spectacular event.
Starting with the Challenge Quiz on Tuesday 22nd May, then the Jubilee
Market, followed by a varied series of evening events, then the Big Lunch
and Jubilee Thanksgiving Service on Sunday 3rd June, and a tea party for
senior citizens, there really is something for everyone.
The culmination of our celebrations is the Festival Fun Day on Monday 4th
June at the Riverside Walkway. There will be Viking re-enactments,
displays, sports, shows and stalls, followed by the Flotilla sail-past and,
just after 10 p.m., the lighting of our village Beacon and a spectacular
fireworks display.
Apart from our desire to give as much of the North Ferriby community as
possible the opportunity to join in with the Jubilee celebrations, we are
also seeking to raise funds for the upkeep of our Village Hall and to
contribute to the good work of the North Ferriby Riding for the Disabled
Group. Your participation in the Festival events will be a great help.
We look forward to seeing you during the Ferriby Diamond Jubilee
Festival.

Wednesday 30th May, 7.30 p.m. in the Village Hall
 “TALKING HEADS” by Alan Bennett
Ferriby Dramatic Society is staging a special performance of two of Alan
Bennett’s famous monologues, “A Lady of Letters” and “A Chip in the
Sugar”. The plays are beautifully written and quintessentially English,
whilst having both a comical and a darker side. Bennett wrote “In A Chip
in the Sugar, Graham would not accept that he is married to his mother, or
Miss Ruddock, in A Lady of Letters, that she is not a public-spirited
guardian of morals." This promises to be a memorable evening's
entertainment, from a much cherished playwright.
