Royal Wedding

[Agonofinis]

I am. I'm crying like a huge damp sloth.

 

Am still a little drunk from last night, and really fancy Kate's sister.

Who's getting married? I'm not watching, I don't really understand the appeal of watching somebody you don't know get married. :P

[Herculine]

Somebody's getting married?

Kate's way better than her Sister, and I'm watching... :3

I was in Hyde Park from 10 this morning and watched the whole thing on the big screens with hundreds of thousands of people waving the union jack.

 

We don't get proud much, or have much to get proud about in this country but today went perfectly. It'll only happen a few times in our life times and singing jerusalem at full voice with those hundreds of thousands of others was something that will stay with me forever. A serious welling of pride I've never experience before for my country.

I was watching it with you live as an international viewer but I was seeing it on the BBC site. Stayed up all night, but will not forget it. The BBC had some audio problems which caused a rather bad echo during the actual ceremony, but seeing it and sharing this memory with people all over the world was a special thing. Two kisses on the balcony! :)

I wish I was back in the UK to see that but video's on the internet will have to suffice.

Even from behind the screens you could see the Spirit, kinda Miss that, we had something Similar, Pre-Elections two years ago, now that I think of that's the only Celebration my country has had in the last two years, the Goverment even tried to turn the last Persian New Year Celebrations to Official Mourning stuff. People Dancing and Singing in the Streets, no one dared to stop them. Tho I think we're paying for all that now...

 

Funny thing almost anyone I know here watched the Wedding from the start via Cable, now I'm just watching the Official TV wondering if they'll throw their two cents in or not even bother mentioning it at all.

[Retribution]

Anyone who lives in a country not under the British monarchy and actually cares about this is silly. It doesn't matter even one bit to the world, and barely matters to the countries under British rule. I can't believe that companies are making money in the U.S. by selling commemorative ___________s.

Retribution, I don't really want to enter ANOTHER discussion about the "meaning" of this wedding. I couldn't have put it better than Dark0ne, so I'll leave his comments as they stand.

 

Also, did anyone see the footage of the Westminster abbey verger doing cartwheels before the ceremony? And the antique aston martin with the learner plates? Great stuff. Watched the wedding and then went to Brighton and sat on the beach. Great day with friends all round. Glad that others of you enjoyed it.
