Personally, I think those dolls are a German p#sstake 😎

They are German after all.

Definitely avoiding as much as possible and trying to keep my republican ideas to myself - but probably largely failing!

I shall be celebrating next weekend, but only because it’s my birthday!

I don’t even get a bank holiday to enjoy now that I’m retired so there’s nothing special to enjoy on the Monday.

There is a low key street party on Sunday afternoon that we will go to but only to meet up with friends and neighbours.

I have no idea if there are any celebrations in my village. I only realised what was going on when my chemo was postponed by three weeks because of the two bank holidays. Not that pleased to be honest!

That's disgraceful. I doubt we shall hear much about that from the flagshaggers. Nothing must detract from The Glorious Day.

I find it most odd that urgent medical treatments are readily moved in this country, in favour of a bank holiday...
My sister, who underwent cancer treatment in the Netherlands, had chemo on Good Friday, a holiday in the Netherlands. She is appalled that a bh comes before people's health.

I'm truly horrified that they have the affront to ask people to pledge allegiance, actually I mean stupidity not affront. How out of touch with reality, I hope it backfires massively.

So will you be waving your little union jack and pledging your allegiance and scoffing coronation chicken or quiche at a street party?

Or ignoring the whole bloated exhibition of flummery and forelock tugging to inherited privilege and finding more important things to do?

I'm in the latter camp :-)
