Hey - I'm no republican - just not good with formal weddings. Very happy for all those that enjoyed the show as I enjoyed my walk.

Well I didn't watch the wedding at all (not even on the news), BUT, I spent most of the day...ahem...celebrating it on my friend/neighbour's front lawn with other friends/neighbours. We ate, chatted, snoozed, teased, laughed, played and drank to excess. A fabulous day. Thanks to M for arranging this mini-street-party and to her young son J for suggesting the idea. Perfect.

Personally, I thoroughly enjoyed watching what Britain does best and I agree it was a great showcase for UK plc.


I employ three hundred people in the USA across three States and overwhelmingly they were excited about the event.


Most US networks covered the wedding live, with few commercial breaks


My wife is Canadian and working back in Winnipeg, again the level of interest was tremendous and the majority of her friends stayed up to watch from 4am onwards


Also my cousin Dan commanded the Sovereign's Escort on the day, so was hoping all went off well for him.

    • Daily Mail?   More atmosphere down the road at Peckham FC aka Menace, Good video, sadly they day the Menace were relegated in the spring (Went to a lot of Dulwich games over the years but now more likely on the South Circular)  
    • Some of you may have never been to a post office on a Saturday when one or more people are posting their ebay parcels and you wait yonks.  Just one of those things.  I'm more concerned about the speed of the Royal Mail.  I may start a thread on this!
    • If you're going British, Marks and Sparks do a fantastic Cornish Cruncher Cheddar (get the three year old if it's on offer) and a Stilton/Stichelton which are wrapped in something more like wax paper.  I'm pretty sure they used to do a Stinking Bishop which had minimal plastic wrapping, as well.
    • Thanks to everybody for the responses. Agree that £50-60 is somewhat excessive so supermarket is likely to be the route we take.
