Fellow Brits how are you going to survive Jubilee weekend?

I'm going on a hen weekend (right now in fact!) and we have a BBQ on Monday - I'm not going to worry about calories until Tuesday!

are you suggesting that the Queen's coronation 60 years ago was a deliberate attempt to ensure it coincide with the London 2012 olympics? As a conspiracy theory that takes some beating.

Did we win the Olympics because of the diamond jubilee. Don't believe that either although I am sure it featured.

The Queen was crowned in February 1952 so she has been Monarch for 60 years, not 59, and unlike Queen Victoria, didn't have the Diamond Jubilee moved.

I wonder how far you will get in educating the stupid people?

Have a great summer though, perhaps you can look to emigrating to a nice country like the USA, where they don't have a monarch, providing of course you wont object to them celebrating the 250th anniversary of the declaration of independence in 2026!

I had similar thoughts....what a barrel of laughs some people are eh?!
