Enough,

We "convicts" down under have had this tripe stuffed down our throats for too long. Our TV was infested with this wedding for a whole bloody week before the event and they still dribble on about the dress and the honeymoon a week after the wedding.

I want to know, in the good down-under military traditiion, do we get the wedding suite videos on Skipe, a la ADFA in Australia?

A few comments:
Land rights for gay wales (whales?), I say.

Ok, my coat is over there. Can I get it before I have to go?

Is there an emotocon for tongue firmly pressed against cheek?

OK, so forget the coat and just run!

Regards

Apelles
 

BlakMax,

The ancient Roman Pliny connects a number of sayings to the most famous Greek painter Apelles. One of these refers to his practice of exhibiting his works in the front of his shop, then hiding nearby to hear the comments of passers-by. When a cobbler commented on his mistakes in painting a shoe, Apelles made the corrections that very night; the next morning the cobbler noticed the changes, and proud of his effect on the artist's work began to criticize how Apelles portrayed the leg—whereupon Apelles emerged from his hiding-place to state: Ne sutor ultra crepidam -- "Let the shoemaker venture no further." :D

The connection of this story with this thread is clear: please stick with your microvoids, of which you are a truly expert, and let our mortals to rejoice with such simple things, as a marriage.

Well done Dascanio , thats EXACTLY how i would have put it :ok:

Oh God!!
 

I just had a little chuckle to myself.. Well how do you think Kate's Dad felt when in old tradition where the Brides father pays for wedding... He hears..

Daddy, I'm going to Marry Prince William and we are getting married in Westminster Abbey, I think there will be a few people coming, is that OK.:))))

Gordy,

That's hilarious.... Those bottom two, I will keep my gob shut before I get moderated... :E

By the way, I hope he feeds her on the honeymoon, I've seen better legs hanging out of a nest....

blackmax - in answer to your third comment, the name was changed from Saxe-Coburg-Gotha to Windsor, by George V in 1917 as it was felt a more British name would improve the public image during, & subsequent to, the horrors of the First World War. Kaiser Wilhelm was the King's cousin.

Prince Philip, of Greece and Denmark, Anglicized his Battenberg name to Philip Mountbatten when he married Elizabeth in 1947.

I trust that further historical explanation is un-neccessary?

I think you'll find that most of the world had the option of wall to wall wedding coverage, but most people are developed enough to use the "Off" button if they didn't like it, & could then read a nice book in peace & quiet! :ok:

To get back to the thread, personally I wish them both well and would hope that their current peace & quiet isn't interrupted by some skanky money-grabbing hack or holiday-maker.

P.S. Did you see that Princess Beatrice is auctioning her hat, for charity, on e-bay? If it was in my house, I think I'd do the same before I put a put a burger in it by mistake! :eek:

Hey Blackmax.

Your origins and rels back to the early days, may have been the right people for that period, it seems they were caught, and quite possibly the earlier model of our Flying Lawyer sent them on extended holiday.

however.....most of mine managed to outrun the Peelers and the Duty men, hence most of us are still here .

Long Live our King whoever takes that mantle!
