Today I’m mainly not watching the Royal Wedding, not because I think it’s a huge waste of money (I don’t particularly), nor because I think the royals are a terribly anachronism that should be abolished post haste (I don’t I’m actually rather a monarchist) – nope I’m simply not watching because I dislike crowds so not going into town, and I don’t tend to sit in front of the telly that much. I am however getting a running commentary via the internet which is a good compromise.
Sadly it seems that They’ve not gone for the very traditional approach I suggested previously. Still I can forgive them that, as I’m a generous sort, and I’m reliably informed that the dress is nice (which is the important thing) and the whole event seems to be giving a lot of people soemthing to enjoy. Yes it may be bread and circuses, but also as we are a monarchy it is a significant event. As such I hope that there’s no trouble as some groups threatened for as others have observed that might get out of hand.
So all that said here at Anonymong, we wish the happy all the very best and a long and happy marriage – and fervently wish that we’ll be able to skip King Charles.
Now for a celebratory cup of tea (it’s the best I’m doing) – and later hunting for royal wedding PEZ dispensers at the behest of a friend from foreign climes.
Oh and let’s hope that Operation Pumpkin won’t be required.
