Public service

I've just decided that today should be a public holiday so that we can all celebrate the Queen's 80th birthday. I know we've already had one day off this week but surely having today off as well would have made the day special for all of us. I would have much preferred to sit at home in watching day time telly her celebrate than be at work. I might also have had raised a glass to her by now (unless it's just this place that makes me want to drink).
