Queen's Diamond Jubilee: Live - Telegraph Waldermar Januszczak, the art critic of the Times, tweeted earlier that grey is the perfect background for a pageant. We'll see. Grey is a beautiful colour against which to set a pageant. Trust me, I'm an art critic. The dull grey certainly makes the ice cream van outside Parliament pop out. Hannah wonders whether it will be busiest day of his year. Anyone for a '99? 10:25 To the most important issue of the day: the Queen's Diamond Jubilee outfit. Her Majesty, Queen of the sartorial world as well as the British Isles, is favoured to wear blue at the Diamond Jubilee Pageant on the Thames, according to Ladbrokes. It's 5/1 she'll wear pink, 12/1 it'll be white, 10/1 it's be red and, erm, 100/1 that she's don a Union Jack dress a la Geri Halliwell. Here she is in one of her stunning outfits soon after she was crown Queen. A white lace ensemble, with matching parasol, kept The Queen cool during her Australian tour in 1954. 10:20 Ed Cumming is our devoted riverside camper. "Spirits undampened, everything else soaked to the bone," he writes. Happiest camper of the day so far is Rachel Wheeler, 51, from Wolverhampton. "it poured with rain all night so we sheltered behind a hut," she told Nick Collins. "We got down here about 3.45 yesterday and it's been raining ever since," she says, gesturing to two grinning granddaughters. I came down for Diana's funeral and the Queen Mother's funeral. I hope this will be the highlight though - you can't have much fun at a funeral. True. 10:18 Our reporter Donna Bowater has been speaking to Faith Tarby, 65, who wins the prize so far for best outfit. Mrs Tarby, who is originally from South Africa, has been here since 6am and has admired the Queen since she was a girl. Having worked in the housekeeping department at Windsor from 2003 to 2005, she said: "She's very down to Earth - a great lady. If it wasn't for her, Britain wouldn't be Britain. The long line of families is stretching down from the Park Southwark and is flecked with Union Jack umbrellas. In true British style, everyone is bearing the weather with quiet stoicism. 10:15 Good morning and welcome to the Daily Telegraph's live coverage of the Queen's Diamond Jubilee.
