While I think a royal wedding party is a grand idea and Kate is a lovely girl, she'll never take the place in my heart like the real queen of hearts, Lady Diana.

My Mother-In-Law once gave me the whole "Queen Of Hearts" speech.
I laughed so hard I almost blacked out.
Forgetting that Irony & Sarcasm are concepts utterly wasted on Canadians I realised too late that she was completely serious...

She didn't really speak to me for over a year, on account of my heartless mocking....

Thus proving that every cloud does indeed have a silver lining & that the tragic death of the humble & softly spoken People's Princess at least brought some peace to one of her more lowly proles....

I wonder if some of her northern relatives will bring the whippet?

When William throws the pocketfuls of coins for the 'scramble' I hope he only uses one and two pound coins, and doesn't take the cheap way out by using coppers.

Kate is quite fit though. I remember she featured in some magazine (Arena?) a few years ago. The article was called something like 'Guilty Pleasures'. It also included the ginger one from Girls Aloud and Sarah Beeny (for obvious reasons). Oh, and the Olson twins.

This thread is my new spectator sport

I think I've shocked the whole office by telling them I'm not excited for the royal wedding...a few (especially some of the Asian immigrants for some reason) naturally assumed I'd be taking the day off to watch the festivites (with hindsight they did agree that a day off would have been a bit over the top considering the weddding is going to be around 4-6am over here I think!).

Cheesy pineapple hedghogs for everyone!

A 6'3" slab who has seen active service in a war and a 6'3" search & rescue helicopter pilot? I'd call that quite manlike.

They do have hair issues, I'll agree.

I know what Mands means though. He's lost his looks early and now looks nerdy, hooray Henryish, kinda blank.
