I'll be watching, celeb spotting, and probably being all silly smiley at the ceremony bit.   

 

So sue me....

 

Edit... I'll be in my jim jams until balcony waving time and probably dotting around on here too.

I couldn't give a shit either way tbh.  Might go out to some party afterwards but I really struggle to have an enthusiastic opinion either way on the matter.

 

I've more interest that in a park near me there are now 10K+ people threatening  to turn up to an entirely unofficial, unsanctioned event.  Can't see this ending well.

An estimated two billion viewers will be watching the wedding on TVs around the world.

The families are paying around 70 million quid for the shindig themselves but the Great British public are still forking out an estimated 20 million pounds for the security costs.

That pays for around 5,000 police officers, who will be helped by 35 dogs who are specially-trained to sniff for bombs. In a bid to make their job easier, the authorities have banned 60 convicted criminals from the area around Westminster Abbey as part of their bail terms.

1,900 guests have been invited to the ceremony, but only 600 will make it to lunch at the Palace. That gets whittled down to 300 for dinner and dancing.

 

That number is dwarfed by the 8,000 TV and radio journalists who are covering the event (with 50 popping over from CNN alone). That's not to mention all the print journos making the trip!

There will be 187 horses on parade during the day. There'll be nine grey horses as part of the escort for the royal procession and five horse-drawn carriages.

No, I agree with him.  I really don't understand why people are interested in her wedding dress

A lot of women ( myself included) like pretty dresses. We are interested in fashion and a high profile figure would be expected to have a beautiful dress.

 

We all like different things and there is nothing wrong with a bit of healthy curiosity.

Mildly interested so shall be watching But I am slightly miffed (ok, quite a bit miffed) about the whole Tony Blair/Gordon Brown mini-uproar......I think it's just a tad rude. Therefore I refuse to go the whole hog and be exicted.

 

(I'm so principled me )

 

I too wanna see her dress..... and the rest of the wedding.....cos I'm just a nosy bugger at heart! I also owe them both a debt of gratitude for getting me an extra day of work, so the least I can do is boost their viewing figures a tad.
