Some activity in the UK this weekend

Not that it affects me. I am deeply involved in an IT upgrade for one of my customers, which must happen over the weekend, since heavens forfend they lose a day’s work. In fact I’m missing the handfasting of a pair of friends of mine, which is a sadness to me - the missing of it, that is.
Just to keep you in the mood, though, here is Wendy Cope’s all purpose patriotic (UK) poem.

I might consider the last line if the upgrade goes well.

How come youse guys always celebrate anniversaries a year early? Weren’t she coordinated or coronated in '53?

Who, me? OMFG, the number of times this has been addressed in TV programs and newspapers in the UK! :boggle:
Yeah, yer wumman was crowned in '53, but she ascended to the throne in '52, when the auld fella popped his clogs.
The nation must not be without a monarch, apparently.

Looks like it might rain for the Jubilee procession. That will make it all the more like the Coronation.

Well, I wouldn’t say that God has totally saved her, but she hangs in there pretty good.

Yeah, I’m sure Charles is delighted. :wink:

As if that (or he) matters anymore. :wink:

It’s all Pippa now…

Happy Jubilee, Ma’am

Yup. Her Royal Hotness ! :smiley:

eewww !
