The Royal Wedding...

[Readie]

Ive got the day off and me and the missus taking our two chocolate Labradors girl our for the whole day

No TV
No radio
Priceless....

I might be more interested if I was getting the day off like some of you guys, but it doesn't really matter one way or the other. My wife on the other hand is getting up at 3:00am to watch it on TV. I have better things to do with my time......like sleep.

There are 643,785 things I would rather be doing than watch or care about the royal wedding.

Ooooh coooome ooonn.....you lot are just still sore over that.....tea party!

I wish them well. I think it is going to be tough for them because I believe the media will be constantly comparing Kate to Diana after they are married. Especially if they don't feel that Kate lives up to what they consider to have been Diana's standards.

Its nice
and I guess I understand the historical significance
but this former Colonial just doesn't understand the whole Monarchy thing. Huh?

Going back to listen to my Michael Jackson albums.

My wife is the same way Glenn. She is buying magazines and is watching specials and I just roll my eyes are quietly leave the room.

Still.......I wish the couple the best.

What will be very interesting here is how "disturbances" will be handled. There are some very high profile terrorist groups who would love the publicity of "taking out some Royals". Personally, it's not the wedding, it's all the media hype that's getting to be a PIA

 

[A4K]

I figure if they can handle all the bloody press coverage, married life should be a breeze... (shame the terrorist groups aren't into taking out the paparazi instead.)

Been going around all my Uni (not surprising) friends (understandable really as I know a few of those guys/people who know them)...

 

[BikerBabe]

Aaaargh....oh no.....just found out that the OC BBMF is doing a flyby in a Spittie for the event ! Does this mean that I'll have to watch the whole bl**dy show to get some Spitfire porn ? Lets hope someone does an edit of the main event...The Spitfire.....and bins the rest before broadcasting it !!!

A friend of mine just texted me this evening, telling the same.
Frankly, I wish the two young people well, and I'll prolly watch the news later that day just to get the basics, but sit in front of the telly, watching the wedding when there's dry curvy country roads, sunshine and a full tank of gas?
Nah, it isn't our Pingo and Kango - Fred and Mary; or Daisy and Henri.

 

[Bucksnort101]

Insanity!!! My mind just can't understand how people go absolutely crazy over stuff like this. Life is a terrible thing to waste so go get one!
News showed some jack-nanny that paid something like $1700 US dollars to have images of the couple "tattoed" on his two front teeth. Supposed to last about three months. What a moron.

when you do not have a life you must needs parasitize the life of someone else:
Most men lead lives of quiet desperation and go to the grave with the song still in them.
Henry David Thoreau

 

[A4K]

I like that saying.

 

[Torch]

I wish them well but don't envy their lives for a second,My wife will watch it I'm sure. I think the reason most people watch it is due to a fairy tale/fantasy that most "commoners" will never live. For a few moments your taken out of reality.

 

[TheMustangRider]

As much as I respect and admire the Brits, this whole royal wedding thing is really not in my interest at all, but what has really annoyed me is how swiftly the media coverage has taken its focus from the current crisis in Libya and Japan -which are still far from over- for a weeding; it really makes you think about the world's priorities these days.
As for the weeding itself, certainly will not interrupt my sleeping time.

 

[A4K]

Good to see something positive once in a while though, there's always so much bad crap going on.

 

[mikewint]

All of which is why the media covers events the way they do.

The trick is to keep in touch with what's going on, without taking it too seriously. Be aware that about 10% of what thy say is fact, the rest of the blurb is just to make a story out of it.
