  • The Queen's Birthdays
    The Queen’s Birthdays Why Does the Queen Celebrate Two Birthdays? The tradition of two royal birthdays was started by George II in 1748. He was born in November and he felt that the weather would be too cold for his annual birthday parade. A solution to this was to celebrate his birthday with a military parade, called Trooping the Colour, held every spring. This tradition has continued ever since – no matter what month the King or Queen was born. Royal Facts 1. Name: Elizabeth Alexandra Mary 2. Born: 21st April 1926 3. Job: Queen Elizabeth II reigns as the Queen of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland and many of the Commonwealth countries. 4. The Queen celebrates two birthdays every year; one in April and one in June. 5. Since September 2015, Her Majesty is the United Kingdom’s longest reigning monarch (king or queen). How is Each Birthday Celebrated? 21st April (The Queen’s actual birthday) is usually spent privately with her family and close friends and with a gun salute to publicly wish her many happy returns. On the second Saturday in June, her official birthday is celebrated with the colourful Trooping the Colour parade from Buckingham Palace, down The Mall and finishing at Horse Guards Parade. Her Majesty is then joined on the balcony of Buckingham Palace to wave to the crowds that have gathered to wish her well.

    CEREMONIAL FOR THE ARMY This publication supersedes Ceremonial for The Army 2008. Crown Copyright Reserved Prepared under the direction of the Chief of the General Staff MINISTRY OF DEFENCE Army Code No. 64332 Cer Pol & Plans (PS12) Nov 2017 AMENDMENTS Amdt No. Date Signature FOREWORD CEREMONIAL FOR THE ARMY 2017 ‘The finest edge is made with the blunt whetstone.’ (John Lyly: Euphues 1579) “A Ceremonial parade, impeccably performed, can never fail to be a source of inspiration to those who watch it or take part in it. It is the noblest and proudest form of drill. Based on the ‘blunt whetstone’ of drill instruction to recruits it was for many hundreds of years the foundation of battle discipline in all Armies. Vegetius, in AD 378, wrote, ‘troops who march in an irregular and disorderly manner are always in great danger of being defeated’. Today, once the elements of discipline have been instilled through drill on the parade square, it develops, naturally, into various forms of crew drill, gun drill and battle drill, but the aim of discipline remains unchanged. This aim is the conquest of fear. Drill helps to achieve this because when it is carried out men tend to lose their individuality and are unified into a group under obedience to orders. If men are to give of their best in war they must be united. Discipline seeks through drill to instil into all ranks this sense of unity, by requiring them to obey orders as one man. A Ceremonial parade, moreover, provides an occasion for men to express pride in their performance, pride in their Regiment or Corps and pride in the profession of Arms.” (Signed) Alexander of Tunis, F.M.

  • The Sovereign's Birthday Parade
    THE SOVEREIGNS’ BIRTHDAY PARADES - SNAPSHOTS OVER TWO CENTURIES By Colin Dean, former Band Secretary, Irish Guards The origins of the parade popularly known as Trooping the Colour are believed to date from around the beginning of the nineteenth century. Guard Mounting took place daily on Horse Guards Parade prior to the King’s (or Queen’s) Guard for the day marching to St. James’s Palace (later Buckingham Palace) to take over the duties. The custom developed of augmenting this parade on the Sovereign’s birthday by including the flank companies from the three regiments of the Brigade of Guards, as well as the Household Cavalry who took part prior to riding under the arch to become the King’s (or Queen’s) Life Guard. King George III 1809: A report in the Morning Post of the 19th January 1809 makes what appears to be the first documented reference to the three Foot Guards bands being together on Horse Guards Parade: ‘Yesterday morning the Duke of Gloucester attended with the Dukes of York and Cambridge, on the Parade in St. James’s Park, to inspect the battalion of Grenadiers*, previous to their mounting guard. At the same time a very novel and grand military spectacle was exhibited, as we believe, never was displayed before; the whole of the numerous Bands of the three regiments of Foot Guards attended, with new state uniforms on. The first and second Bands wore new jockey velvet caps; the three Bands marched as far as the entrance to the Stable-yard; the first and third Bands went on with the King’s Guard, and the second proceeded to the Queen’s Guard, near the Queen’s Palace’.

  • Customs and Traditions in Britain Stephen Rabley Introduction
    Customs and Traditions in Britain Stephen Rabley Introduction Some British customs and traditions are famous all over the world. Bowler hats, tea and talking about the weather, for example. But what about the others? Who was Guy Fawkes? Why does the Queen have two birthdays? And what is the word “pub” short for? You can find the answers here in this book on traditional British life. From Scotland to Cornwall, Britain is full of customs and traditions. A lot of them have very long histories. Some are funny and some are strange. But they’re all interesting. There are all the traditions of British sport and music. There’s the long menu of traditional British food. There are many royal occasions. There are songs, sayings and superstitions. They are all part of the British way of life. A year in Britain JANUARY Up-Helly-Aa The Shetlands are islands near Scotland. In the ninth century, men from Norway came to the Shetlands. These were the Vikings. They came to Britain in ships and carried away animals, gold, and sometimes women and children, too. Now, 1,000 years later, people in the Shetlands remember the Vikings with a festival. They call the festival “Up-Helly-Aa”. Every winter the people of Lerwick, a town in the Shetlands, make a model of a ship. It’s a Viking “long-ship”, with the head of a dragon at the front. Then, on Up-Helly-Aa night in January, the Shetlanders dress in Viking clothes. They carry the ship through the town to the sea.
