Lord Lieutenant visits Backwell

Excited youngsters from a Backwell School were enthralled by an interesting visitor.

Mary Prior, the Lord Lieutenant of Bristol chatted to children at Fairfield School about her job and her invitation to the royal wedding, where she was sitting very close to David and Victoria Beckham.

Mrs Prior, who is grandmother to Harry, aged four, and Ella, aged two, at the school, also took along memorabilia from her visit including a flag, her official invitation, a piece of wedding cake and a book on the event.
