Not a chance. I didn't even realise that there was a secton for the royal family Confused until I clicked last 15 minutes.
I won't be in the country Grin which means I'll miss out on a day's holiday [oh well]

Why do they have to have it when there are so many public holidays anyway?! Right between Easter and May Day.

Oo - that's my Grandad's birthday! Easy enough to remember then. Not that he would have cared, he was a bit of a Communist. Grin

I am going to be back in Oz and even though I am leaning towards republicanism a bit I still think I will have a party!

Lovely. Not that I'll be watching it but the roads should be clear for a drive out Grin. I don't do royals or weddings for that matter - [miserable old cow emoticon].

Now in the real world no way would you be able to have a big white wedding that quickly after getting engaged...all the photographers and florists would have been booked up years ago

Bastards.

They have COMPLETELY screwed over my brilliant suggestions of either 1 July or Oct/Nov when there is a dearth, a DEARTH I tell you of bank holidays.

Anyone have their email address so I can send a strongly worded complaint?
