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.

    • Yes, but most posting on here against the festival have not said they hate all festivals, it is about location, scale and footprint, duration of the event, including build and dismantling, and the level of impact on wildlife and residents living close by.    Last year I said on here that I would, reluctantly, accept the three day event, provided it was no more than that and the footprint was not extended to include more of the park. Now it is reasonably clear there is an intention to scale up I think a new, more suitable location must be found. 
    • Have to admit, I did have to check myself - I've been to many festivals and it seems a bit contradictory to challenge one, but our local park is not the place for a festival of this size. It just needs to either scale down to the environment (smaller footprint, less damage) or find a better location. There is a VAST difference between festivals out in the countryside and the same in an urban park.      
    • Campfire on from about 7pm on Fridays - pop along and join me - I always have some Small Beer available. 
    • Thanks. I dropped off the books that I thought would be most helpful for them already this week.  Thanks for the advice. I have advertised the ones that may be of use for studies on this forum then dropped off some at Oxfam in Herne Hill and others at the Bell End House book exchange. Still a few more to drop which I will likely give to Mind on LL who I like.
