I am completely traumatised by Beatrice's toilet seat hat

He definitely teases William (because he mustn't sneak a peep, I suppose).
According to a lipreader he said "Right Will, she's here now"
But yours would have been better

There were many bits that I loved about today - this was one of them 
It was as if he couldn't resist.....and did his a bro a favour by just checking...
Then again, I bet Wills was super confident about how she would look.

I noticed she was almost bent double in the car on the way there - the hat was clearly too big for the car
Its Eugenie I can't get over - why did she think that was a good look

Oh well done, Miss S 
I knew it was something 'positive' by the expression on Harry's face.

Yeah, I reckon so 
I think it's to do with compassion....something his mother has taught him obviously
He has the knack of knowing how to do the right thing and has that common touch. But at the same time he is aware of royal protocol.
Hmm, forgive my cynicism! 
Prince Charles was presented like that back in the day. He could break dance and liked the Three Degrees! He was down with discotheque set and went jogging on Bondi Beach. He was caring and sharing and talked to his plants. He even presented kid's story show, Jackanory. Diana apparently advised him to wear single breasted suits, not like the stuffy old generation of royals. What a nice bloke!
IMO really not the same at all. We all knew Charles was a stuffed shirt - he always looked a bit of a div when he was trying to look cool. As I said ................notv the same at all IMO.
That was presented as his charm and endearing awkwardness. Of course they're not the same, I'm just pointing out that the state funded royal PR machine was working its magic back in 1981.

Go away and moan somewhere else.
This is a nice happy jolly thread. 
I was trying to find the words to say exactly the same thing. There are more anti threads than pro threads so just piss off.
That's not very friendly on this wonderful day for all patriots, is it? God's representatives on Earth have got married for the wonderment of all us great unwashed little people! I thought you'd be full of goodwill bonhomie to all!
Anyway, I'm orrfff, forelock untugged and all!
A snippet from the Daily Mail:
Among all the fantastic outfits and array of dizzying hats on display at the Royal Wedding, there were unfortunately a few that failed to pass muster.
Leading the way in the fashion faux pas were Princess Eugenie and Beatrice, who chose bravely but perhaps unwisely judging by the response of royal fans and pundits.
The girls are known to love experimenting with fashion, but perhaps today wasn't the time.
Beatrice's taupe Valentino Haute Couture dress and matching coat were elegant, but her headpiece was deemed to be a ludicrous addition, perching on her forehead at an impossible angle and detracting from her sophisticated outfit.
Her hat, which celebrity bridal stylist Camilla Ridley-Day suggests was the wrong shape for her face, has already sparked a Facebook group named Princess Beatrice's Ridiculous Hat, with members mocking up pictures of the Princess with monsters on her head

it was a bit rude TBH but ...........why bring negativity into a nice thread when there are plenty of more sneeering threads that it would have been applauded?
Carnelian in all seriousness I completely respect the fact you do not like the royal family and all the pomp etc but please please, there are loads of threads where you can say your piece.
Please let us have this one.
i think its been a good day, ive enjoyed my day!

At the altar, William said "you look beautiful" and then joked "we were suppposed to be having a small family affair"
.
Eugenie looked better at the Wedding Eve dinner:
And here's Beatrice:
I agree with that piece ............................Beatrices outfit was lovely ......................and then she chose to ;put that monstrosity on her head.
Eugenie .............................eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeugh from top to bottom.

I don't think they are ungainly ... when they got out of the car to go into the palace they both held their heads up and walked beautifully and elegantly.
Someone advised them very badly today

I'll be back to normal by Monday I expect though 
Beatrice looks more like her mother every day.

Can't we hang it out til a week next Tuesday?
Guys - this is the funniest thing ever.I found it by accident - please watch the whole thing. You will not regret it

The official reason is "He isn't one for jewellery."
It's certainly not protocol - Charles wears a wedding ring. However it's not that common either (Prince Philip doesn't).
Men wearing wedding rings is a suprisingly new thing - it only became really common in the post-war years. My father doesn't wear a ring, and I've known a few older work colleagues who don't wear one.

That's a tall order, Syd. Is there a specific reason for next Tuesday? Or are you eke-ing out the Bank Holiday vibe..?
My husband had a wedding ring but ...............it was impractical for work ...........over the years (34) it got lost.No big deal really.

He looks like the plasterer off of DIY SOS

I don't think Men wore wedding rings til the 70's (I may be wrong).....and the Royals would stick to Historical tradition....
