Is anyone going to take a peek at the Royal Wedding ? We're having a Street party here on Friday - it's a quaint British custom where everyone takes their tables and chairs into the Street (yes, really) - eats soggy sandwiches (they're soggy because it usually rains!) and then we wave a few flags and reminisce about the last time we did it! It's great fun, you should try it. We have quite a few Americans over in London so hope they have a great time.
PS Promise I won't smoke with all the excitement! |

I may turn the TV on early on Friday morning before I have to go to work. Our news coverage will start at 5am - we've had several tv specials about Prince William and Kate and one about Prince Harry - and of course revisiting the wedding of Prince Charles and Diana - I can't wait to see what her dress looks like!
I'm sure it will be a royal day! _________________

I think we'll all be watching the festivities. From the sound of things, that's about all that's going to be on TV Friday.
I'm with you, MaryD, anxious to see her dress. _________________

I agree, Mary. Such a beautiful bride and handsome groom. Her dress was simple but very elegant. Hope they have a very happy life together. _________________

The dress was lovely, wasn't it. We had a good old Royal knees up with lots of people we've never met before, but it was a lovely day with everyone getting into the spirit of things, and it didn't rain so that was an added bonus.. You have to wish them well as it can't be easy always being watched and trying to always do the right things especially when you're young.
One thing I noticed this time was that no-one was smoking at the party. I was so glad that I didn't have to go off and hide to have a cigarette. It seems that no-one even admits to smoking anymore and you can really relax and enjoy yourself better as a non-smoker - no more worrying about when you can get your next fix. There's another good reason to give up! |
