About this deal
If you don’t have time to close the road by speaking to your local council, you can run what is called a ‘Street Meet’, says A Plan Insurance. So, if you live in a cul de sac, "councils are generally happy for this to go ahead without permission". If not, use your driveways, parking areas and front gardens. After all, none of these will require council permission - and should be problem-free as long as you "don’t obstruct pavements". Where will the Coronation happen? Sandwiches are easy to serve and a tasty addition to your afternoon tea spread. You can prepare them in advance and choose the flavours to suit your guests.

Whether you are displaying a Victoria sponge, a batch of cupcakes or a wedding cake, we sell cardboard cake stands to suit various sizes and themes.

Benji Lewis, an interior designer, says on decoration: "Whilst red, white and blue are clearly patriotic and you won’t be letting the side down by using these on your tabletop, the Coronation is clearly a massively rare and regal moment so bear that in mind when you consider things." Put mayonnaise, sultanas, curry powder, flaked almonds, turmeric and mango chutney into a bowl and mix together. Keep collections to yourself or inspire other shoppers! Keep in mind that anyone can view public collections - they may also appear in recommendations and other places.Afternoon tea is what you make it, but the classic menu consists of a tier of finger sandwiches, one of sweet treats and another of scones with clotted cream and jam.
