Most people in the UK will be having some sort of party celebration over the four day weekend. The support for the Royal family is pretty hight right now in the UK. Obviosuly last years royal wedding helped. For most its an excuse for a good knees up! I am going to a party today (the sun has also come back out!) and aim to ear and drink quite a lot!
Yesterday there were reminders of our history from when we pretty much ruled the world to hearing stories of WW2 veterans. One of which was talking about how he was fired 60ft into the air and into the sea when his ship was hit by a torpedo and he had to cling onto a dead shark before being rescued! What a hero!
I will miss these celebrations when I move to Qatar next week.

God save the Queen, Rule Britannia and all that!
