Happy Birthday ma'am

[erastes]

I know I say it every year but I adore TheTrooping of the Colour. I'm getting ready to veg in front of the telly, wave my metaphorical flag and sing along to all the Jingo-istic tunes. For an anti-Iraq war person I know this is disgraceful behaviour but it's so bloody testosteroney and utterly irresistible.  As English we do damned good spectacle. And hell. Men in uniforms. *rubs thighs*

*SPORFLE.*

Thanks for posting about it - Mum and I flipped over to bbc after I saw your post, it's nice to watch the Trooping of the Colour. Traditional and such. :)

I'm beginning to think that it's not just me... the whole world is going gay. Must be that gay gas that the Americans invented.
