1334389 2013-03-29 00:41:00 I got picked out of the crowd by a policeman (probably the first I had met - I was a country kid) at the Royal Show in Invercargill that year (1952?), and put between the policemen lining the way into the Showgrounds for the Royals.
The Royal tour was held during 23 December 1953 - 31 January 1954. All us school kids were given a medal with a blue ribbon.

See newsreel from the tour here (www.nzhistory.net.nz).
