BBC News - 'Buckingham Palace' bonfire event raises thousands

A Staffordshire man who had royal approval to burn down a 20ft (6m) high model of Buckingham Palace hopes to have raised up to £10,000 for charity.

About 2,000 people went to Sunday's bonfire event at The Royal Oak, Dilhorne, after Eddie Heath, 63, spent four months building the replica.

He wrote to the Queen for her permission and received a letter from the palace with her best wishes.

I wasn't quite sure where to put this - it isn't really royalty related, more like royalty adjacent :lol:  But I thought it was kind of a cool concept :)

Jenee, I think I've put pictures of it in the Royalty Today section.  (I get confused with which sections to put articles in, too.  Often. :P)
