Congratulations to Her Majesty for a long (and hopefully longer) reign
Monarch of the seas: Britain marks the Queen’s reign with rain, and pageantry
Perhaps, as she looked out over the hundreds of rain-lashed boats sailing down the Thames to celebrate her Diamond Jubilee, the Queen was thinking of another cold, wet, miserable spring day: June 2, 1953, the day of her coronation. She is, after all, the monarch of a windswept island kingdom in the north Atlantic, where the only sport more popular than complaining about the weather is proudly enduring it.:) I do love the British.
