A guest at last night’s “Dressing The Queen” party sends us these exclusive pictures of the posh wooden ladies WC (‘loos’ in British slang) at Buckingham Palace last night.

“It was weird, because they just looked like ordinary loos,” says our source. “They didn’t even have posh hand towels or anything. But when you went into the actual cubicle, they had these crazy old-fashioned wooden loos. It was a cold night but the seats were very warm.”

The source adds that the Queen’s designer Angela Kelly made a tearful speech of thanks at last nights event, held in the Long Gallery in the palace.
