Here in Canada, we celebrate
the birthday of Queen Victoria
every third Monday in May.
Why?
Because she was Queen of Canada when
modern Canada was created in 1867.
And we are nothing if not good colonials,
loyal and classy, eh?
And today there is no one
quite like Queen Elizabeth II,
is there?
Or as HRH the Cat calls the other HRH,
"my cousin Betty Windsor."
Yes, Betty does have a restraining order
against HRH but, I ask you,
what family doesn't feud 'n fight?
Send her victorious,
Happy and glorious!
Well, that's THAT for another year.

That first photo is adorable! 💗
And that first GIF... EVERYTHING. 😃😄
Keeping riches that your ancestors have earned through slavery and murder does not really make Betty nor Vicky great ladies, on the contrary, both are ebil witches.
Keyboard Cat is amazing. I never knew how the song ended. The rest? Wonderful. Happy Victoria Day!
That last one slays.
Queen Victoria represents her extended era in a way that no other person has achieved. Still, many of the things given her name have negative connotations--Victorian morality, Victorian prudishness, Victorian shoddy machine-made workmanship, etc. Still, we can be grateful for the good things--for instance, the Victorian era was largely the golden age of the cornet.

We will trade you one _rump for either of your HRHs.
I second bob. a grand lady and a fat slob.
Very cool cat.
Happy Victoria Day!
hahaha...so funny!
I love these. She is such a grand lady.
What a cute and funny tribute to Queen Victoria!
I'm kind of mad that I don't have any restraining orders against me.
A good day to start the biography of Victoria I picked up at the library sale a few months ago.
I find it interesting that the three Queens, Elizabeth I, Victoria, and Elizabeth II, were none of them expected to ever come to the throne, and yet they did so when they were quite young. Imagine being raised for and expecting one kind of life, and then having all that responsibility heaped on your shoulders.
All good until the last one.. ugh! Remember the good old days when she could have sent him to the dungeon!
Hahahahaha
The Dear Dracula meme, thoug...
And a day year old squirrel would have more experience than IMPOTUS.
XOXO
I love Keyboard Cat! What a talent! What a good-natured feline!
As for Betty Deuce, the Queen of Shade, she has more military experience and more experience of Everything! Especially compared to that puffed up dung heap walking next to her. I mean, she actually served in the military - no bone spurs for Betty!
Funny damned memes... 'Be aware she can move in any direction' made me laugh.
Cheers!
LOLOL.... great post and pics - and...humor! love your blog.
I hope that you enjoyed a good old cup of English tea and a large slice of victoria sponge to celebrate the day.
Keyboard cat is great..Too cute..Love the bring your child to work day..Happy Victoria Day..ENjoy
Love the Uber one! Happy Victoria Day :o)
And far more intelligence and class.
Happy day to you. The photo of bring your child to work day. OMG!!!! They could be twins. LOLOLOLOL
It's hilarious seeing her in these photos, especially next to the dumb fat orange mofo. Happy Queen Victoria Day.
The Queen was wise to file that restraining order. We know how wild HRH can get.
Cheers!
I keep waiting for her to say, "That's it! I've had enough of this crap. I quit!"
Those are great - especially the Queen on the chessboard!
Back in the day Victoria Day was a big thing - community picnics, flags, bunting, games, sometimes a decorate your bicycle contest, fireworks and family. Now it seems to be pick up a 24 and open the cottage. Well maybe not this years but ...
Oh my God, I literally LOL'd at Keyboard cat! And the chess joke!
She looks so tiny next to the Frump.
I totally forgot.
Thank you for the inclusion of the orange fool.
Dear Dracula. Hahahahahahahahahaha
My family are all die-hard Royalists. And also die-hard fans of the British parliamentary system after watching the dumpster fire across the border
Can you imagine the over dinner conversation between Betty and Trump?! I'm sure she must by now have perfected the art of switching off when necessary.
I LOVE, LAWV, LURVE THIS POST! And now for first time I understand an old short story where some soldiers in outpost of empire got drunk "on Victoria Day" and with their pistols shot an HRH design in the wall. Thank you, Queen Debra.
every since 2016 i've wished we had your queen
Love the Queen. Any lady who can repair a military vehicle in pouring rain and dropping bombs is truly worthy of her role in history.
OMG...that cat!
I wonder if I could request that Uber if I need one!
As usual, some great pictures! Did you know that Kim Newman wrote a series of books set in an alternative universe where Dracula survived, married Queen Victoria and made becoming a vampire hugely fashionable?
We only have the Queen’s Birthday here, Down Under, in June. It’s not her birthday, but it is the official start to the skiing season, I hear!
It's gonna be rowdy in the colonies once we are free to go about as we please!
Those last two!!! BAHAHAHAHA Oh my gosh, hilarious.
haha
any direction haha and last one haha
you rock like always :)))
Happy Victoria day !
No matter what Trump does he will never be more than a cowardly buffoon.
