hummm_mabbe Posted April 29, 2011 Report Share Posted April 29, 2011 Hullo Just wondered whether others are watching the wedding? I am sort of watching the build up and I just keep feeling horribly sad, for multiple reasons I suppose. Also its nice when they interview just a normal person who has come to see it because they love it, but am getting a bit fed up with all these dignitaries they draught in to waffle away. Think I will probably go back and watch the main bit at 11am, and if I get too sad I will just stop watching. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Narcissa Posted April 29, 2011 Report Share Posted April 29, 2011 I'm not interested in the royal wedding. I think it's good that people are out celebrating and enjoying themselves, but no amount of street parties and Mcvities wedding biscuits are going to hide the fact that we're being screwed by the tories again - baring in mind that we are essentially paying for the royal families lavish lifestyle. So no, I won't be watching the wedding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So no, I won't be watching the wedding. Did I miss out on free biscuits again? I dont think you are alone in your feelings. I think there are some 'protest' street parties, "not the royal wedding" parties going on by anti-monarchy groups. Lol and just as I post this, David Cameron comes on telly to waffle about how wonderful it all is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Data Posted April 29, 2011 Report Share Posted April 29, 2011 To be honest it bores me, its not my thing. I'd much rather be working away on puzzles on my laptop, watching comedy/drama/horror, or outside going for a walk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Corpsewithpulse Posted April 29, 2011 Report Share Posted April 29, 2011 I woke up this morning all depressed as per usual but when I switched on the telly to see one of the wealthiest, entitled and all-round-better-than-me eggs on the planet marry a gorgeous tall brunette then I couldn't help but swell up with an unbridled, very British brand of joy. Joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy Normally when I think of Britain, I think of war, elitism and poverty but all is forgotten now because I can rejoice in joyous joy. I for one will be wholeheartedly partaking in teh celebrations celebrating this wonderful occasion. Because as so often rammed down our throats recently, it's not just their joyful day, it's everybody's... including mine. So here's a Leaving Las Vegas stylee toast to the happy couple :king_right: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CrippleAndStarfish Posted April 29, 2011 Report Share Posted April 29, 2011 I wasn't gunna watch it, but I came downstairs and my nana had it on the telly. Scoffed a bit at her and made some half-arsed mildly insulting comments about her watching it, and the next thing I knew, I'm sat on the floor right in front of the telly, eyes all wide and blinking up at the screen and tears flowing down my cheeks, stupid grin on my face. Though it was beautiful, and Kate looked an absolute dream, the lump in my throat of happy tears has now sunk down to be a great big heavy block of jealousy and "I'm never going to have anything like that for myself " thoughts in my belly. xxxx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ambivalence lol Its difficult innit. Its nice seeing people happy, and crowds all waving and that. Gives you that little "whoo". But then another bit chimes in and feels a bit sad / unhappy. Yay for stupid grins :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dibley Posted April 29, 2011 Report Share Posted April 29, 2011 I don't normally like the Royal's but I'm watching. Loved her dress, loves the way he looked at her. Waiting for the kiss now. I've even taken pictures! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
galupy Posted April 29, 2011 Report Share Posted April 29, 2011 i am actively avoiding anything that has to do with it simply cos it'#s all hype. i'm a firm believer that getting married should be special for the 2 people not what everyone else wants / expects and how can 1900 people be special? Plus, i dont really give a rats ass about it cos i'm not sold on what the royal family actually do for us anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CrippleAndStarfish Posted April 29, 2011 Report Share Posted April 29, 2011 Okay, now waiting for the balcony thing, I'm starting to feel really sick. Still crying, but it's not a happy kind of cry at all. I should probably turn it off, have the remote in my hand, but i can't. I want to see it, but at the same time i don't at all and want to erase everything i've seen so far. *is all bitter and twisted and actually kind of angry at them for being happy* xxx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
guntarded Posted April 29, 2011 Report Share Posted April 29, 2011 I am laughing at some of the people in the crowd...some of them are nuts!!!! My mates in London are watching it in Hyde Park - dressed up in british makeup and royal fancy dress....hope they have a great day. I'm trying to keep upbeat on this, because everyone in Crewe is still at their homes, and so I'm on my own here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
