Everyone's fully aware that this year marks sixty year since she became Queen.

All that's being pointed out is there is no historic significance, to it being celebrated this particular weekend.

As well as the coronation, it also piddled down for the Silver Jubilee.

Perhaps plucking June, as the pinnacle of these celebrations wasn't such a hot idea.

Febuary 8th this year, the actual date of her Diamond Jubilee, admittedly cooler than today, was otherwise wall-to-wall sunshine.

Not a rain cloud in sight.

Long may she rain over us...in damp, and dreary June.



Nice one G. Karma due for this - clever clogs!
