Mr Sunak and Ms Murty chopped parsnips and strawberries in the kitchen in black aprons before joining the room in a toast which ended in the group saying “long live the King” and giving three cheers.
Women’s football team moves game due to bouncy castle on pitch
A women's football team arrived for their final home game of the season only to find a bouncy castle had been put up on it as part of coronation celebrations.
Colney Heath Ladies were meant to play their last home game against Bowers & Pitsea Ladies on Sunday, on a pitch they regularly use at Colney Heath FC, in the Hertfordshire village.
But players were surprised to find the bouncy castle on the pitch, which organisers refused to move.
Players had to play on a different pitch at the venue, which resulted in a "sour end" to their league campaign.
"We were aware of the fact that there was an event happening, but we didn't know that it would be to the effect that we wouldn't be able to use the pitch", a club spokesperson, who did not wish to be named, told the PA news agency.
