“When I was invited to Buckingham Palace in 2006, Her Majesty asked me: ‘In what part of the Kingdom do you live?’. I had the privilege of explaining that I came from Queen’s Park in Cullybackey”.
Ald Nicholl thanked the organisers and supporters of the Jubilee street party, especially Mrs Lilas Richmond and Cllr Beth Adger MBE, the musicians, lambeg drummer and Ballee Blue & Royal Flute Band.
“It all helped make the day a wonderful occasion,” he said.
