Techinically, I'm deriding the British media and it's fawning attitude to said monarchy, not the monarchy itself (not on this thread anyway)


Good luck to the pair involved but it's just going to be endless, godawful coverage


The news channels are reporting how other news channels are covering this... and there is 9 months left!

I share your concern Sean and quite frankly who gives a flying f*ck these days? Plenty do I'm afraid. Unfortunately a royal wedding sells newspapers and the media will of course be full of it. I suppose it will get the X-Factor off the front pages of the red tops if nothing else but you don't have to buy it or watch it if even listen to it on the radio. Try the off button.


But Will We Get The Day Off?

Last time this happened I was at sea - and very happy to be on a long long patrol. When "she" died I had to go to deepest, darkest Wales to avoid the media coverage of the funeral.


It's going to be a long long 9 months San, you're right - and nowhere to hide.

Awwwwwww come on! Dead posh frock? Heads of state in groovy get ups? Hats the like of which we shall never see again? Land of Hope and Glory, flag waving, bunting? Shiny smiling faces of patriots lining Pall Mall? SPECIAL EDITION STAMPS?!


People of EDF, get with the spirit!


I for one and BESIDE myself with excitement.

You reckon? I think she's a much more natural beauty than her mum-in-law-to-be-that-was. She doesn't need a nose job, for a start.


At least William, unlike Charles, got to choose the woman he marries.

    • Looking for a short length of electric (twin & earth)  lighting cable. Most likely there could be some in a skip near you??
    • Southwark's recycling guidance says to put shredded paper in the blue bin in a paper envelope or "small box". I've got far too much of it for that  (confidential stuff going back decades) - thanks to the EDF member who kindly gave me a shredder! It would be a "massive box". I have barely started  the shredding, and I've already got an extremely large bagful.   I've read online that you can put it into  large clear plastic bags in the bin for paper,  provided you  clearly label it "shredded paper" and it is obvious what it is. Does anybody know if Southwark would accept it like that? Alternatively, can anyone make use of it for animal bedding or packaging material or adding to  compost?
    • I'm happy to report that some foxgloves are now looking great in my garden. The bees are loving them. Also managed to grow some corn poppies from seed. I've left some decaying logs in the corner so maybe there are some stag beetles there.
    • Southwark lists parks as an ecologically important space so don't understand the point.
