We're orf with the in-laws

THE Queen and Prince Philip waved to punters at Ascot's Ladies' Day today where they were joined by the in-laws. By staff reporter
Carole Middleton, 56, was beaming as she and husband Michael, 61, took part in the traditional horse-drawn carriage procession for the first time. The Duchess of Cambridge's parents a former air hostess and businessman travelled in a coach following Her Majesty, the Duke of Edinburgh, and other Royal Family members. Carole, now a party planner, wore a pale taupe outfit and matching hat with lace detail. The Queen opted for a green-trimmed coral hat that matched the colour of her suit. The Middletons waved to racegoers who were drenched by a downpour that started just as the carriages entered the royal enclosure. The rain had threatened to ruin the day but dedicated fashionistas refused to let the weather spoil their fun. Extravagant hats were briefly covered by umbrellas, and bold dresses with waterproofs, until the sun eventually came out. Several punters paid tribute to the 300th birthday of the famous Berkshire racecourse, with one visitor donning a bold wide-brimmed hat with a veil which was decorated with a crown, a toy rabbit in a cage, eggs, leaves, butterflies and the number 300. Paula Iachetti-Gibson, who created the spectacular headpiece, travelled to Ascot from Milan, in Italy, for the occasion. There were several punters who risked running fowl of the dresscode. A group of six friends, for example, wore hats in the shape of different birds as a nod to the 18th century. Newly knighted Sir Bruce Forsyth, 83, also made an appearace with his wife Wilnelia Merced, who was dressed all in white. Meanwhile, a mystery racegoer set tongues wagging with this superinjunction hat, below. But who could it be? All will be revealed in tomorrow's Sun newspaper. Princess Anne, wearing lilac, and Princess Beatrice, in an indigo coat worn over a turquoise dress, were in the second carriage. Beatrice wore an elegant indigo hat, accessorised with a white flower. 3Once in the enclosure, the Queen spent time talking to jockeys, but made a fairly swift exit when the rain became heavier.

This newspaper article is a tabloid. An article from the newspaper the SUN. The title of the article is We're orf with the in-laws and the subtitle is THE Queen and Prince Philip waved to punters at Ascot's Ladies' Day today where they were joined by the in-laws. The stile and language are

informal, with lots of adjectives and adjective tags. There are also puns and slangs. It is in active voice and there are a lot of descriptions with emotive language.

All these are highlighted in yellow in the article.


The audience of this newspaper article should be young females because the language seems o refer to young people, and also because girls love shopping, which means they love clothes and fashion. And if they love clothes and fashion, the girls should love clothes or magazines or articles talking about clothes or fashion. And this article is perfect for those people. This article is trying to tell about the Ascot's Ladies' Day to people who weren`t there. To say what happened, who participated and what the clients did. This article makes the readers curious about the other news later on, and makes the readers read on. I think that many people would find this article interesting even though they are not young girls. For example, I, who isn`t a young girl, liked this article VERY much because I learnt new names of the important people in England, and because I am interested in DESIGN, so I liked the different ideas hats could have had. There are a lot of pictures in the article. And all of them show the important people who came to the party: The first picture shows the royal carriage with the Queen Elisabeth II and prince Philip to the way to the Ascot for the Ascot`s Lady`s day. They are both smiling and they are saying hello to the people gathering them. The Queen is wearing a pink hat which matches her nice pink dress. She is also wearing gloves and jewelleries. Prince Philip is wearing a nice black suit and a grey hat. The second picture shows Carole Middleton, who is smiling. She wears a beige hat and a grey outfit. She is in a carriage and she too wears jewelleries. The public is also around her. The third picture shows three women in which two of them are wearing swan shaped hats. One is black and the other is pink. The other woman is wearing a very particular hat with big red dotted circles. There`s also a gigantic bug on it. The fourth picture shows Sir Bruce Forsyth with his wife Wilelia Merced. Sir Bruce wears a black suit and a black hat, with a splendid tie and a powerful smile. His wife Wilnelia is wearing a completely white dress, white hat, white jewellery and a white smile. They are standing in the middle of the park. They seem to be happy to be there together. The fifth and sixth picture show unknown people with different kinds of hats in which they are the most special ones. All of these information prove that this article is a TABLOID which i liked it very much.
