The Tudors

I just finished watching an episode of The Tudors given that it is Victoria Day weekend here in Canada and we celebrate Queen Victoria's Birthday because she was and still is the longest reigning monarch in British history and the longest reigning female monarch in the history of the world. That could be surpassed pretty soon by Queen Elizabeth the second but she still has a good four years to go. Victoria Day in Canada is usually celebrated as the beginning of summer with festivities at cottages and the like. The Tudors most definitely reminds me of my British heritage and background so I often talk about the Commonwealth I live in because it is great to be part of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland.
