Does any other country celebrate things in the same style as the British do, with things like the Queen's Jubilee that is happening here.
Whether or not you like them or not, you've got to admit it is quite spectacular, all the soldiers and gold carriages, concerts around the city.....and a flyover later on today with Concorde and our Red Arrows...
I'm not a royalist, but if it weren't for them - I'd be in work today!

Did you see the party at the palace? I think everyone was waiting for Ozzy to embaress everyone and shout "Let's go fucking crazy!!!" but he was well behaved. Although he came on too early AGAIN and missed his intro (he did the same thing on the Jonathan Woss show)

Yes I wondered whether or not he'd do or say something to embarass everyone!
I know people in work who were going there - they had tickets!

me...I'm just a very bitter taxpayer...string em up, I need a new humanskin lampshade..
Might happen...
Corcorde is a dodgy plane...
And the Red Arrows arn't adverse to having a few pints beforehand...
And what a lovely Firework display it would be....I'm sure it would be much appreciated especially if they crashed into bucko palace or perhaps the dome...
Let me have my anarcho dreams...they're all I've left to cling onto...

Bucko Palace - lol!!
Could you imagine the if one of the Red Arrows caught the wing of another whilst flying in formation, causing Concorde and a few 'arrows' to crash into the Millennium Dome, that'd be so embarassing for this country!

I'll be watching later on this afternoon - and if anything like this happens, I'll know who the number one suspect is?

Music/Concerts....i think is the latest! Unless of course I'm wrong. It was going to be a business park.
(They couldn't find a big enough plane to fly it over to Japan!!)

Yes it was cool! I went to the Dome during it's twelve month period of which it was open to the public, and I liked it! I'm glad I went!

The carnival towards the palace was quite good - bit of a waste that Queen wasn't even there to see it !
This country should do more of this kind of thing. The problem is, in this country people tend to be too stuffy, in my opinion anyway!

She's getting on a bit though isn't she? I see they presented her with a brand new £5million car today! Glad to see my tax is being spent well!

Did anyone have a street party? I went home to my parents on Sunday where they were having a party...
I was really funny seeing all the old people get pissed and dancing in the road.
I ended up snogging their neighbours daughter who is only 20 (I'm 29) eeek
I'm seeing her again Friday :)

Best part was McCartney playing 'Blackbird'
