SO WILL YOU BE WATCHING THE WEDDING OF THE YEAR?

**angeldelight** · 27-04-2011, 06:44 AM

Who will be watching on Friday?

Do you not care ?

Are you going to be watching just to see the dress ?

Will you watch the whole wedding ?

Will you make sure you avoid the tv that day ?

Will you just watch the highlights ?

Will you be having a street party or anything exciting like that ?

Is it driving you mad already ?

nope i won't be watching.

whole thing is a waste of money and time and i resent the constant drip feed of propaganda that we must all be excited and all love the royals.

I am working on Friday.

So no I wont be watching the royal wedding, I'll be watching my littlies play which will probably be a whole lot more fun, lol

**mama2three** · 27-04-2011, 06:59 AM

We're taking ds to flamingoland instead , hope everyone else is watching the wedding so it wont be too busy!
Dh is very 'anti' royal , so it wouldnt be worth the arguments to watch ! I might get to see the highlights in peace at somepoint when he is out!!

**desiderata** · 27-04-2011, 07:05 AM

I am having to take my ds to the airport on Friday as he is going to Scotland for the weekend to visit friends he made in America last year. Might mean the roads are nice and quietxx

Is someone getting married? No one told me.

We'll do our best to avoid it.

**mrs_scottydog** · 27-04-2011, 07:20 AM

We've nothing planned but I know that we won't be watching the wedding as DH is fed up of hearing about it already. I may or may not catch the highlights at some point. It's going to be on the tv for days. Hx

**Cammie Doodle** · 27-04-2011, 07:48 AM

I will probably dip in and out of it as I'm off work and Hubby on duty until 9. 30 pm

so may be bored

. I could not sit for hours watching every snippet, but will want to see the dress etc

**Pixie dust** · 27-04-2011, 07:53 AM

I am going to watch it well the main bit, I won't be sitting there infront of the tv all day.

I see on the news people are camping out in London to get a good view.

**green puppy** · 27-04-2011, 08:09 AM

**rickysmiths** · 27-04-2011, 08:47 AM

Yep. I'll be watching the whole thing from beginning to end.

I've got my Union Jack cup cake cases, some smoked salmon and Pimms. I will cook tomorrow so I don't have to on Friday. I was working on the days of the last 2 Royal weddings so I am going to enjoy this one

We'll be up early, dd is off into London with 2 friends for the day and the first tube goes at 5.15am!

**AliceK** · 27-04-2011, 08:55 AM

I won't be watching it as I'm not really that interested but we are having a street party so I'll be out there helping with the organising and setting up of everything

xxxxx

**breezy** · 27-04-2011, 09:00 AM

Not watching any of it, I'm with Kindred on this one! Hopefully out for the day as I'm not working and roads should be quiet

Oh wow that beets a wedding any day !

It's my hubby's 40th that day so were travelling in classic minis to Newquay with 2000 people for an annual **** up at a campsite it's going to be extra special this year as I've bought hubby a classic mini pick up for his birthday which I've hidden for 8 months , I'm giving it him just before we go

So don't think the wedding will be on my mind at all

**PixiePetal** · 27-04-2011, 09:19 AM

I will be watching it, well not every second but we are having a 'do' at frinds house. Any excuse for a knees up!

Not the wedding of the year for me - the second of my nannied children is getting married in August. He is the same age as Wills, well 3 days older (born in same hospital!, security was tight so the mum says

) I have a copy of a photo of the two of them playing rugby - a real head to head when they were on opposing school teams. Wills was a bit of a wimp as far as rugby goes, or so I was told by my lad

they were abut 11.

I am making cakes for our do, so will be busy tomorrow evening baking

**caz3007** · 27-04-2011, 10:12 AM

My hubby is working and so am I with one small LO. I agreed to work but did say the wedding will be on the tv in the background and I will be watching what I call the highlight parts, but wont be too interested in all the rest. My son is doing about the wedding at school, so he will probably want to see some of it too

**keatingschick** · 27-04-2011, 11:06 AM

To be perfectly honest, I dont know.

I'm not right bothered, I'm not a royalist and I'm not REALLY interested. Went to a christening the other day and a friend asked what I was doing, said she is having the girls around her house, getting dressed up, fascinators etc like you are going to a wedding

and she is going to serve scones and cream tea and then champers when they are married. THEN she has found out that the local is opening and is doing a buffet and showing the wedding on the big screen, she has suggested they do tea and asked if they'll do scones - as she thinks not everyone will want to drink alcohol at 10a.m when he is planning on opening. But she doesnt know whether to carry on with her own plans.

But now it turns out my hubby is working anyway, so I am using that as my get out clause

I don't know whether I SHOULD watch it, I've asked my daughter but she isnt really that fussed, but I dont know if I should then I won't feel I've missed out.

I don't go for all this kind of thing, my mum is DEFINATELY watching it, but its like when Princess Diana died and she watched the funeral etc, and getting all emotional etc....and sometimes I think it goes a little TOO far.

I MIGHT watch it just for the sake of it, but if I have something better to do then I wont.

**sue m** · 27-04-2011, 11:14 AM

I might get a glimpse. I'm going to my mother's in Leeds tomorrow till Sunday and she has a list of jobs for me but I hope to see what dress she's wearing.

**anneriddington** · 27-04-2011, 11:28 AM

We're having a party, 30 of us, starting the day off at just before 11 with 'blushing bride' champagne cocktails and then proper old fashioned afternoon tea, cucumber sandwiches, cakes the works. My friend has been round this morning with a box of bunting, balloons, flags, looks like we're really going for it! I know lots of people are getting fed up with it all, but makes a change to watch the news with something happy on it rather thans all the death and fighting we have seen around the world recently.
