Unless you know every individual at the wedding and know for sure they wouldn't be royally! pissed off with a comparison to the fiasco in London... I suggest you leave it out.

I think you could always add how camellia copes with Charles big ears.Or how about how Philip pick that big nose of his or you could mention the fact that Fergi tried to rip Andrew off that would get the ball rolling i think.laugh

There were rumours years ago that Princess Di was having an affair with Chris Rea. Can You imagine her name if they ever married ?

Cheers all!! Ah, i wouldnt know everyone but its an irish wedding and it isnt likely there will be any if many pro royalists present! As i said this isnt a patriotic anti brit slur but just a humorous aknowledgement of the comparison between the extravagance of the fiasco compared to the wedding ill be at!! Have a few ideas in mind but would love to get a general consensus first!

Mesimarja: Are you this resentful towards all weddings or just this specific one?
Let the two young people get married and go on with their life, it's none of our business.


Exactly it is none of our business, so why should the media, especially the 'oirish' media ram it down our throats?

Not only Irish newspapers but all over the Europe (and probably overseas as well) they are wallowing and feasting on the Royal Wedding.
WOMEN do like romantic stories, you know wink

I won't be watching.

2. Isn't it on a week day? I will be working.

Should be a good show though. Have fun! grin
