In reading this thread i just realise that Britain doesn't celebrate an independance?? For example when the Romans were expelled in 410 A.D. or the ''Union of 1707'' when Great Britain was created correct?? or when the United Kingdom was created in 1801 ''Act of the Union'' ?? Were their any terrible monarchs who were deposed in which are celebrated like an independance???
Dang a history lesson How am I to remember all that? Nah Brits are a somber lot and not given to a lot whoopin' and hollerin' but all that is changing, they're getting the hang of it - one of the benefits of multiculturalism.

Hopefully they won't push all the Shopping Sales on the Brits if they institute more holidays there . If i see anymore of ''Santa'' over in Iraq on TV i swear Sh*t is gonna hit the fan as they say .
I have always thought it strange that Aussies celebrate the Queens birthday witha holiday when most of them don't even like royalty and are longing to be a Rebublic...but they will do anything to have a party and drink themselves silly...
