If you go to google.co.uk, you will see a lovely little illustration depicting what I can only assume is supposed to be a Clue-esque murder mystery scene. This is because today would have been Agatha Christie's 120th birthday.
BUT that is not the only birthday the UK is celebrating today.
Today is MR. BEAN's 20th birthday!!!
Ah, Mr. Bean. That loveable, clumsy little British character, developed and portrayed by Rowan Atkinson. If you ask me, it should be this birthday that Google should be honoring with a title illustration.
Here's a pleasurable little Mr. Bean clip for you:

For more Mr. Bean, YouTube is celebrating with full-length episodes. They've got their priorities straight!
Today really should be an English holiday, don't you think?!

Does anyone know how to embed the video instead of just posting the link?
Quinn - I can't tell you how much I am enjoying your blog. I spent a few days in the Bloomsbery area in a rediculously expensive, rediculously small hotel room (you could barely get around the 1 single bed) on my way back to the US from Hastings. I loved the city and am loving your stories as you discover it much more than I could in a few brief days. love Aunt Jeanine
