JACKSON, Tenn. Young girls in the Hub City had a chance to dress up in their favorite tennis shoes and tutus, for a princess-themed tea party.

I really want to be an engineer when I grow up, so I think Im a technical princesses, 9-year-old Aliyah said.

Its taught them poise, its taught them how to have manners at a dinner table, said Khadija Payne, whose daughter participated.

The Mega Grace Livechurch gym was full Saturday afternoon, as the churchhosted its first annual princess tea party.

Organizers say the goal was to teach young girls about etiquette, but also to teach them, girls can be tough too.

One of our missions here at Mega Grace Live, is we like the kids to boldly express themselves through the creativity of God, said Tamika Young, associate minister of the church.

Young said each girl had a chance to talk about her talents on stage.

Some like sports, some like art, some like gymnastics, she said. So whatever their gifts and their talents are, they are unique. And we wanted to celebrate that.

Young said its important to teach girls to be confident in who they are at a young age, so they can grow up and be successful.

We need to encourage our young girls that they are beautiful, she said. That the Lord loves them, they are wonderfully made and they dont have to compare themselves to the world.

The event was free and open to any girl in the area aged 3 to 11.

If you missed out this year, dont worry, organizers say they plan to make this an annual event.

We hosta lot of events at The Spectatorbutweve just heldour favourite: thereaders tea party. About 200 subscribers come to the back garden for tea and cakesto meet our writers, our editors and each other. T-Sticks supplied the tea, H. Forman & Son the food and Taki brought along a bottle ofLagavulin for those whofelt the need forsomething stronger.

The thrill, for us in 22 Old Queen St, is meeting the people that we spend our working lives thinking about.Its difficult to imagine a typical Spectator reader because they dont really exist: this afternoon, for example, we hada policeman, a mathematician, a specialist in Chinese antiquities, a joiner and and a taxi driver. I met one man who had brought his son fromPoland for a cuppa, and others who had braved Southern Rail. Some who had been subscribing for just a year, introduced to the magazine throughour podcasts. And I met someone else who says shestarted subscribing when we were the only publication being rude about The Beatles at at time wheneveryone else loved them. We had Remainers and Kippers, young Corbynites and old Powellites. In other words: theusual mix.

I was doing my market research, asking whythey subscribed and what thelike about the magazine; what we could do more of, or less of. They all had different likes and lovesbut seemed toagree on one thing: that they buy The Spectator because they like reading well-argued articles with which they disagree. If that sounds like your thing, then do try us out: we have an introductory offer of just 12 for 12 weeks. Click here.

Anyway, here are some photos.

Prince Philip was in top form in his top hat and long tailcoat as he met guests at a garden party alongside Queen Elizabethat their Scottish palace, Holyroodhouse on Tuesday.

The royal, 96, was all smiles as he chatted to former Wrens members of theWomens Royal Naval Service about their experiences during WWII. The annual party is a key event during the royal couples week-long stay in the Scottish capital of Edinburgh.

Philip appeared to be in good spirits just two weeks after being released from the hospital, where he was treated for an infection.

Also at the event on Tuesday was the royal couples second son Prince Andrew, 57, who, like his other siblings, has been increasingly filling their fathers role alongside their mother.In May, Philip announced his upcoming retirement in the fall from public duties on behalf of his patronages and charities. Though, the palace did say that he might periodically appear at events alongside his wife from time to time.

The royal couple, who will host the Spanish king and queen for a State Visit next week, will mark 70 years of marriage the longest in British royal history in November.

"An early morning to get to #Buffalo - rocking @CanalsideBflo for our best #American fans, can't wait!"

That was Jeff Burrows, drummer with the Tea Party, tweeting in the early a.m. on Thursday, and rather handily encapsulating the feeling of excitement that has been building here since the announcement that the revered Canadian trio would be making its Canalside debut during the week that included both the 4th of July and Canada Day.

Our relationship with this masterfully grandiose trio goes back to the beginning, when word of a progressive-minded new band boasting the beautiful bombast of Led Zeppelin and the genre-stretching influence of Middle Eastern and Indian music began to seep over the border.

Many sweaty and inspired Buffalo concert-club dates ensued throughout the '90s, and our love affair with the band was in full flight.

In many ways, Thursday's Canalside show represented the full flowering of that relationship, for this was a major stage for the band, and a payoff for the loyal fan.

The Tea Party's music is huge, dramatic, deeply-hued and broadly dynamic, which is to suggest that it is more than up to the task of filling a vast space. That's exactly what happened straight out of the gate on Thursday, as the group tore into "Writing's On the Wall," and singer/guitarist Jeff Martin's agile upper-baritone resounded across the waterfront.

In February, the band celebrated the 20th anniversary of its critical and commercial juggernaut "Transmission" with two sold-out nights at the Town Ballroom, during which that album was performed in its entirety. Eager, one assumes, to give their audience something different, the band offered a setlist on Thursday that pulled from nearly every aspect of its 25-year career. It was an undeniably strong cross-section of spirited (and spiritually charged) Tea Party music though if I had to quibble, I'd have asked for something additional from the often-overlooked masterwork "The Interzone Mantras," perhaps the sexy and super-charged "The Master & Margarita."

Ah, but who can argue with a set that included an early take on "The Bazaar," a song that in many ways is the quintessential Tea Party epic, all Phrygian mode majesty and rhythm section propulsion, Martin's darkly brooding singing lending a sinister, dramatic effect?

This was glorious. And LOUD. Let's not forget the significance of amplitude here, for the band's manipulation of light and shade runs the full volume gamut. Honestly, we could've gone home happy after this tune, but Martin, Burrows and bassist/keyboardist Stuart Chatwood were just getting started.

"Psychopomp," a heart-rending "Heaven's Coming Down" into U2's "With or Without You," and a rather frenzied "Save Me" filled out a set that included encores of Led Zeppelin's "Dazed and Confused," the Rolling Stones' "Paint it Black," and David Bowie's "Heroes," the last of which put us over the top.

I've seen this band some 30-plus times over the years. If this wasn't the best of the bunch, it was certainly close to it.
