I'm watching the Royal Wedding. Nice to relax and see something on a

[patricia92243]

little lighter side than all the things that have been going on lately.

Looks kinda odd to see all the royals getting off a "bus."

Understand Camilla will be Duchess of Cornwall.

[drdon326]

1. Oh its lovely, isn't it?

[Catchawave]

2. Yes, a great antidote for these past few weeks

of death watches and sadness.

Yes, she's the 2nd most powerful woman in Britain now, so sez CNN.

[tjwmason]

34. Does C.N.N. know anything?

Silly question I know. But she is way way way down the list.

The Queen is a very influential woman, mainly because she has such great experience of the top of government (remember that she spoke with Winston Churchill who was her first Prime Minister).

Then there are people like the Education Secretary, the Trade and Industry Secretary; not forgetting Cherie Booth, Q.C., the P.M.'s wife.

3. Prince Charles looks really happy

and so do his sons.

6. Hee-hee - I'll have to watch the re-runs for that :)

[Catchawave]

16. They've replayed it a couple of times.....

...there's NO woody. I can't believe I was staring at his....:blush:

[Lex]

17. Yeah, after that post, I looked too. No woody. Thank god. nt

[drdon326]

33. You gotta be kidding...He had a woody that wouldnt quit.

are you blind ?

[Lex]

38. Nope, not blind, and other posters here didn't see it either.

Sorry to disappoint you, mate.

[drdon326]

41. He still had it as he left the reception.

that wild Chuck.

[Lex]

46. If it brightens your day to think so, then I say 'good for you.'

Sometimes a rich fantasy life isn't such a bad thing.

[patricia92243]

5. I'm glad he is finally getting the woman he loves and that the boys seemed

to accept her.

Does SHE have children and have they accepted Charles, I wonder?

[JI7]

7. yes, i think she does have children

i'm not sure how many though.

[SheilaT]

10. She has two grown children

a daughter Laura and a son Tom. Forget how old they are exactly.

[patricia92243]

11. I have not heard them say that the children were at the wedding. I would

like to see them. I hope they have not snubbed thier mother's happiness.

[Bunny]

22. I'm pretty sure they were there, as was her ex-husband, which

is a little strange, I think.

[tjwmason]

35. British media reported that they were to be witnesses

There are two witnesses who sign the marriage register, and it was reported (before then event) that these were to be Prince William and Tom Parker Bowles.

[Catchawave]

8. A streaker for the Royal Couple...

too funny!

[patricia92243]

9. They think he was drunk, but it IS funny.

[matcom]

12. i think its the dumbest fucking waste of time EVER on CNN

and THAT is saying something!

MAJOR protest in Iraq today. but THIS is "newsworthy" :puke:

[terrya]

13. Well, I agree about overshadowing the Iraq protest. But...

face it, we'll get the same blanket coverage if Jenna or Barbara Bush were to get married. Same obsession about the wedding dress, the reception, the guest list, etc.

[patricia92243]

14. The difference is that I will not watch.

[Catchawave]

20. Don't give Rove any ideas....

He'd certainly marry off the twins if it keeps the MSM distracted !

[mr blur]

15. Did they mention the protestors by any chance?

Or even mention that they were there?

[patricia92243]

18. Yes. And shown pictures of them.

[greatauntoftriplets]

19. How many protestors?

What did they say?

[mr blur]

21. Well, we didn't watch it,

(these people make me want to puke) but it is a fact that this wedding shouldn't have taken place, being constitutionally against the law (even though our government sidestepped the issue), so I'd like to think that they were pointing this out. What folks in the US may not realise is that few people here actually like this arrogant clown, despite the hopeless cases who actually went to Windsor to watch it that you see on TV.

[greatauntoftriplets]

23. Oh, I'm not watching it either....

And I was happy to hear that protestors were present to voice their lack of support to the marriage of Prince Overbred Eurotrash to Mrs. Rottweiler.

Now I am off to :hide:

[Catchawave]

24. LOL....don't hide...

I'm just here to dish about the royal wardrobe and hats! Not the protests.

[patricia92243]

25. Camilla looks prettier at the blessing than she did the wedding. Can see

her face better without the big hat.

[roguevalley]

27. I noticed that when she entered the room, it appeared that what

she thought she was getting into wasn't. She looked for a moment like she had been pole axed in the face. She looks sick with nervousness and the realization that nothing ever in her mind was as big and huge as this is going to be. She fumbled for his hand and he turned the pages in her book so she could keep up. It sort of made me sick a moment, the sadness of it. I just felt sad at that moment and I don't cut either of them slack in real time. Odd moment, sad. During the singing her hands were shaking visibly. What a scary thing.

William is going bald. Has his family curse.

[MollyStark]

40. Wouldn't you be nervous?

If there were TV cameras at your wedding and it was being beamed live all over the world, wouldn't you be nervous?

[SW FL Dem]

30. What the heck is that in her hair?

It looks like straw sticking straight up.

[JI7]

26. Prince William looks like he has a bald spot

looking at Charles' hair right now William's bald spot seems to be in the same area as Charles. so i guess that's one thing he got from his dad.

[bleedingheart]

28. yup and they fluffed his hair up to hide it..

[LizW]

29. He does, but he's still a cutie

Harry -- not so cute. He reminds me of Scut Farcas.

[Darth_Kitten]

43. I may be mistaken, but I think baldness is passed on from the

mother's side of the family. :shrug:

:D

[Catchawave]

31. I wonder if the Queen will retire now

that Charles may have finally settled down?

I'm loving the Blessing Ceremony, it's very beautiful. I'm nervous for Camilla too, this is HUGE stuff :) She looks very nice too.

[underpants]

32. Where the hell is the "DEEEAWY BEWUVED" guy?

I was really looking forward to that.

[bleedingheart]

36. did you know that Charles is a big Python fan?

I was thinking that when I was watching the ceremony...

[underpants]

37. I thought Andrew was the "big Python" fan

:evilgrin:

[Lavender Brown]

39. Mawaage...

[Darth_Kitten]

42. Hope nobody calls her "Dutch" that was Diana's nickname

apparently.

:hide:

I'm so sorry. :evilgrin:

[Aristus]

44. I wonder if by dubbing Camilla Dutchess of Cornwall the Queen

may be having a subtle little royal joke on her. Cornwall is the end of England. "Camilla, Queen? No darling, she'll be the end of England!" Are the Windsors sophisticated enough to make a joke like that?

[Darth_Kitten]

45. The Queen knows how to keep her crown.

Queen Bess still has a few tricks up her sleeve. :)
She hasn't been on the throne this long to give it up to Camie. :)
