QE2's birthday is April and KC3's birthday will be November, but I feel sure this holiday memorial will continue to be in June.

For a long while it was "the 24th of May" and now it is just "the May long weekend" and there are generations who don't know about Queen Victoria's birthday.<br />KKay L.

I'm confused, however, because the cars don't seem to be on the left side of the road. Is this a divided highway, or have Australians started driving on the righthand side?<br />KKay L.
