For sale : The QE2 Story Calendar for 2025
« on: Oct 25, 2024, 12:03 AM »
It is that time of year again : The QE2 Story calendar for next year is ready!




This year, we offer Lulu wall calendars for sale, and we are also setting aside a couple of Vistaprint calendars as special prizes in forthcoming photo competitions, which will be a great incentive to enter your photos! 

The Lulu calendars can be ordered here :

https://www.lulu.com/shop/members-of-the-qe2-story-forum/the-qe2-story-calendar-for-2025/paperback/product-gj8zprw.html?page=1&pageSize=4

The site offers a preview just underneath the picture of the calendar title page.




A PDF preview is also available if you click into the first two links at the bottom of this post.  Note that this is just a preview, and doesn't reflect the quality and resolution of the printed calendar. You can also see there the excellent photos that have been included in the calendar. Lulu requires the photos to have a high resolution.

The price per calendar is GBP 10.00 or equivalent in other currencies, with a slight margin to benefit The QE2 Story.

A big thank-you to everyone who contributed with wonderful photos for the competitions, who voted and selected the prizewinners, and who sent us the prizewinning pictures.

We wish you  and your family and friends much pleasure in the calendar and its memories over the course of next year!

Its the most exciting time of the year - THE CALENDAR IS OUT!

Thank you so much Isabelle for putting it together - your time spent on this is appreciated by all of us.

And of course thanks to everyone who's entered the photo competitions to make it possible in the first place (along with those who actually run it each month).

My calendar has come! Of course, I had to get the first one, to check whether all is in order, and indeed it is.

Once again, it is beautifully produced and extremely well packaged, so that everything arrived in perfect condition. This will be a wonderful reminder of QE2 throughout next year.

As you can see, selfies are not my strongest point (nor apparently is rotating photographs), but the message is clear I hope 💝 .

Quick delivery of the Calendar.  I tried to flip the image but it didn't work for some reason. 

Looking forward to seeing more photos of members with their calendars.

Some mobile phone images do that... you could copy and paste it into a Word document, rotate that, then save it, then upload the saved file...?

Very glad to hear that, Myles.

Glad also that Queen Mary will once again enjoy a QE2 Story calendar. That is a very kind thought!

Looking forward to your photos of the calendars with their owners  :D
