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.

    • The address is: Bradbury Oak House, 4 Underhill Road, SE22 0AH
    • "2.2.1 The Royal National Institute of Blind People (RNIB) has undertaken a comprehensive consultation process with its residents and stakeholders regarding the proposed development which aims to create 41 additional units and has been designed to address the growing demand for accessible and supportive accommodation for individuals with visual impairments. 2.2.2 The consultation process has been a key part of the planning phase, ensuring that the needs and preferences of current residents are taken into account. RNIB has held several meetings, workshops, and surveys to gather feedback on the design, facilities, and overall impact of the new development. Residents have been encouraged to share their views on various aspects, including accessibility features, communal spaces, and the integration of the new blocks with the existing infrastructure which has directly informed the proposals. 2.2.3 The Applicant also engaged with the local MP, Helen Hayes, and a couple of local councillors at the behest of RNIB tenants to provide new homes to promote independent living for its Blind and Partially Sighted residents"     Seems like a very sensible and necessary proposal to me.
    • Is this the home for the blind and partially sighted at the south end of Underhill? 
    • Sorry, yes, you can park but it's unlikely you will find a space. I meant to say 'you can't park with any certainty' - and if you go past Stradella Road getting back to where you can park is a bit of a bind.
