What you need to know before your trail

This is a funny tour of the UK which the Queen herself goes on after a swan wearing a  jumper steals her handbag! The Queen is not about to get servants to get it back though, she’s going to get it back herself. After all there’s her birds and her handbag! Being the Wueen, this is a journey like no other, a chase around the Uk following the swan using as many different kinds of transport as she can get her hands on. Oh the things she sees on her unofficial tour of the country. So many famous landmarks. She doesn’t do the journey exactly on her own however – with her is a faithful corgi,  and in hot pursuit, a number of hapless policemen trying to get the bird back as well.

Spot the places she visits along the way – well a flying visit! -The Angel of the North, Edinburgh Castle and The Giant’s Causeway are just some of the places on the Queen’s biggest tour yet!
