Royal Wedding

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

I have to confess that I am somewhat surprised that my invitation has not arrived yet. Perhaps the corgis ate it. Oh well, have to have a pint and watch the footie instead... :lol: :lol: :lol:

Maybe that's what killed it.

Mercifully, being in a different country, I'm not getting bombarded by the media circus this has become.
But hey! Maybe the day will go with a bang after all.
Cheers.

They can stick the royal wedding up their collective arses.

Unfortunately I do live in a different country and still have to put up with all their crap.

So many people here are interested in it, and I just keep thinking to myself "didn't we fight a war so we wouldn't have to pay attention to the crown?"

Just wait until the Queen dies, the media will be milking that one dry for weeks. I may have to hide away in a cave when that happens!

Well pleased our 5 yr old telling her friends what mooching parasites they all are, made my day.

We had a rebellion, declared independence and more besides but when Princess Margaret got married sales of TV sets along the east coast went through the roof...

I just don’t understand why you don’t have some huge counter-gathering outside the event with clever signs and exploding limousines.

Next time, tell me when some twit is getting married (this wasn’t on my radar) and I’ll come organize it. 😁

I've got a good friend whose daughter replies to the question "What is a princess?" with one word: "Expropriator."
