It’s as relevant as any/many other birthday threads posted here isn’t it?

Don't know why but Frankie Boyle just popped into my head. :-)

[Tilly2]

It's a bit early, surely?

[elliemay1]

I'm sure she'd never forgive you if you forgot!

I s that why 24th May was empire day?

[elliemay1]

Yes PP
//Empire Day was first celebrated on 24th May 1902 (24th May being the birthday of Queen Victoria, who had died the previous year). It was not officially recognised as an annual event until 1916, although many schools throughout the country were celebrating it before this.//

Thanks to Queen Victoria, most of Canada, excluding Quebec of course, has a stat. holiday on May 24th or the closest Monday preceding it.
