A SOUTH Lanarkshire care home celebrated the Platinum Jubilee with a special event.
Rosepark Nursing Home residents enjoyed live music, enjoyed cakes and sandwiches, wore tiaras, and as the highlight of the afternoon, welcomed 'the Queen' herself with her corgi.
The occasion was held in the home's main room, which was decorated with flags, flowers and buntings.

Resident Grace Ross, 77, from Glasgow, said: "I love company and I love dancing. I can no longer dance but I can listen to music.
"I have always loved music, so I really enjoyed the event.
"I admire the Queen very much, she is wonderful. I am quite happy we are able to celebrate. Seventy years is a long, long time, it is a very special day for her and for all of us. I think so anyway."
Jessie Clark, 95, said: "I enjoyed the celebration, very much so.
"I am enjoying the music a lot. Seventy years for the Queen is very good, she is always nice and very down to earth."
