Royal Wedding

[sinkov]

What a lovely day for it, aren't they lucky. Mrs S is glued to the screen, me I couldn't care less, there's a couple of tricky sprint handicaps at Thirsk need some sorting, that's occupying my time.

But it's a good day, I'm happy and content, millions of people are deriving great pleasure from this event, so who am I to mock, if it makes millions happy it's a good thing in my book.

And it's a double whammy, it's also an event that will have sanctimonious lefties, those who think they know what's best for us ordinary people, tearing their hair out in frustration at the riff-raff enjoying a Royal Wedding, steam will be coming out of their ears.

So millions of ordinary people enjoying a day in the sun, while lefties foam at the mouth, what's not to like ?

The Americans are loving it too. No one can do ceremonials like us. I hope they are happy and her dysfunctional family don’t create too many problems.

Brilliantly staged as usual. It looked absolutely spectacular - and the weather played a big part.

And with a global audience of 1.9 billion I reckon that it will result it £££ of revenue for the UK from extra tourism etc.

Congrats to all involved.

Exactly 59/60... The Royals bring billions into the country's economy via tourism and sales of merchandise..

It cost the taxpayer £30million just to pay for the wedding.

It is reckoned, extra government supplied security is another £100 million down the drain...

Its all relative.

The Brexit referendum and subsequent billions to pay when we finally leave Europe is a bit of a waste so to show-off Britain and showcase the Royals to th world is priceless.

At least the country will see a return on its investment whilst Brexit just gets us to retain our sovereign powers.

All that time, effort and money to retain what we should have.

Now that's a real waste.

I bet Alto and BT are secretly watching it behind closed curtains ..

Those god damned Americans will be as jealous as phook,because they don't have any history as such..

Britain at its best

Her mother was amazing and stepped up to the plate with a very difficult task. The US now have their own Royal and a black one at that. Thought the inclusion of the gospel choir and young Musician of the Year celloist added greatly to make the Royals look a modern family, not sure about the Fire minister though.
Meghan looked amazing and that tiara - wow,
