Aside from advertisers desperately looking for a new angle on "buy our stuff please", and local newspapers looking for a new angle on "cute pictures of old people with young children waving flags" Is anyone ACTUALLY bothered about the queen bit?

Days off ar nice, nostalgia never really hurt anyone, street parties are lovely, obviously, but if it was a big party for something else national, would it make any difference?

I'm just a bit skeptical that anyone really cares how long the queen has been queening for. Maybe old people, and the odd royalty obsessive, but not normal people, surely?

Days off??!! Not for anyone in retail! And that means no days off in lieu, no overtime, just normal days. I'm working sat/sun/mon/tues. Why would i want to lose precious holiday time to be off when everyone else is....i want my hols when I choose!
