From Royal Central.
The Queen is being joined by members of her family at Windsor Castle for the celebration of her 93rd birthday.
The occasion of the monarch’s birthday coincides with Easter Sunday this year meaning it is a double celebration for The Queen who is Head of the Church of England.
Members of The Royal Family have joined Her Majesty in Windsor for the occasion.
It is expected that they will attend church in the morning to mark the most important event in the Christian calendar.
Meanwhile, at Buckingham Palace, the Band of the Irish Guards will perform a rendition of Happy Birthday during the Changing of the Guard ceremony.
Gun Salutes never take place on a Sunday. As such, the mark of respect has been postponed by a day.
On Monday, the King’s Troop Royal Horse Artillery will stage a 41 Gun Royal Salute at noon in Hyde Park.
A further 62-gun salute will also be performed by the Honourable Artillery Company at the Tower of London at 1pm.

Comments are subject to deletion if they are not germane. I have no problem with a bit of colourful language, but blasphemy or depraved profanity will not be allowed. Attacks on the Catholic Faith will not be tolerated. Comments will be deleted that are republican (Yanks! Note the lower case 'r'!), attacks on the legitimacy of Pope Francis as the Vicar of Christ (I know he's a material heretic and a Protector of Perverts, and I definitely want him gone yesterday! However, he is Pope, and I pray for him every day.), the legitimacy of the House of Windsor or of the claims of the Elder Line of the House of France, or attacks on the legitimacy of any of the currently ruling Houses of Europe.
