emmab Posted November 16, 2010 Share Posted November 16, 2010 I think it's exciting. I love a royal wedding and yes, I want a day off too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
patsylabrador Posted November 16, 2010 Share Posted November 16, 2010 I like a Royal wedding. Prince William is so supportive of the troops & the injured guys back home I don't begrudge him a state wedding. I love watching the horses on big state occasions, the cavalry horses are so beautiful, refined and well bred and the police horses are all muscles and a bit thuggish looking. I will be putting bunting up for fun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lillybettybabs Posted November 16, 2010 Share Posted November 16, 2010 He seems to be one of the hard working down to earth royals. Some of them a begrudge Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bluekarin Posted November 16, 2010 Author Share Posted November 16, 2010 Don't know - were shops open for Chas & Di's do...I can't remember That just made them sound sooo Essex (sorry to any Essexites out there ) I think it is lovely news. I think he appears a genuinely lovely person, who is hard working and supports the troops. His mum would be so proud of him. I am not looking forward to all the press reports and luckily I don't buy a daily paper so shan't be deluged by it all. I don't know much about Kate, but she appears nice as well. So I shall be watching on the telly, tissues in one hand and a glass of bubbly in the other *cheers* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lesley Posted November 16, 2010 Share Posted November 16, 2010 Oh dear, does anyone else really not care or is it just me? Sorry I'm not fussed either - and I'd just finished mopping the floors and was looking forward to some mindless To Buy or Not to Buy An announcement on the 1 'o' clock news would have done for me. All the media hype will spoil it....... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
patsylabrador Posted November 16, 2010 Share Posted November 16, 2010 I think the cost of having a queen is something like 70p each a year, so I guess covering the wedding would probably cost 50p more each. No idea really, just a wild guess, I don't think it will do our legs in too much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Griffin Posted November 16, 2010 Share Posted November 16, 2010 It's lovely news I adore the Royal family and I bet old Queenie is chuffed to bits for her beloved Grandson I still remember the massive street party that took place on the green outside my house when I was just three years old for the marriage of Charles & Di. I obviously don't have many recollections of the day but I do remember my mum and my nan preparing lots of food Lots of food and lots of bunting Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted November 16, 2010 Share Posted November 16, 2010 I'm not massively fussed either, but Rosie will enjoy it as she's not experienced a royal bunfight yet. I wish them well though, they both seem sensible and level-headed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C&T Posted November 16, 2010 Share Posted November 16, 2010 ooooo - a Royal Wedding! I bet there is already loads of speculation about her dress Good Luck and Congratulations to them both! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Charlottechicken Posted November 16, 2010 Share Posted November 16, 2010 If the alternative to a royal family is a British version of 'Dubya', then I'll make do with the royals! Good luck to them, they seem to be in love Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lesley Posted November 16, 2010 Share Posted November 16, 2010 I'm not anti-royal....just not fussed. I wouldn't like the alternative either Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seagazer Posted November 16, 2010 Share Posted November 16, 2010 I think its lovely, William and Harry seem almost normal compared to most of the Royals. I was working in a building to the side of St. Paul's when Charles and Diana got married and remember all the fussing going on getting the Cathedral ready. On the day we weren't allowed into work as they had VIPs in to watch the wedding Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jackie45 Posted November 16, 2010 Share Posted November 16, 2010 Just hope the wedding is when we are away on holiday. No fan of royal family but I hope they don't make a mess of marriage like most of the royal family. Jackie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
