Well over here in Moscow they are celebrating it in a big way. Putin has declared 8th and 9th a public holiday.. There are going to be street parades, parties, and massive firework display. There are banners up all over the place declaring the 60th anniversary of victory. The whole centre will be closed to traffic and they are getting out the tanks/weapons etc. for the parade. Isn't it strange how different cultures behave regarding the same historic events. I would have expected more from the UK than from Russia, but then it may offend Germans who are residing in the UK if to much of a fuss is made!
