Nobody can do all the pomp & circumstance better than the Brits (and they're pretty creative with hats, too.)

And the blue-gray Karen Walker suit Kates mother wore was to die for!
The fly-over with the Lancaster, Spitfire, & Hawker Hurricane was pretty cool too.

God Forbid! What would we do without a healthy dose of attitude? Go Trucks! Lizzy

PS How 'bout Fergie's daughter? Now that was the ultimate hat statement to my mind. Whew! L

Best line from a commentator was from Tim Gunn: "What's with Princess Anne? She looks like a salad." (And she did.)

No, but I think I'd like to see the pics of the breakfast Harry hosted for the survivors of the all-night party. Very Happy

I get nothing but CNN and the American Network .... and was inundated with wedding crap for the previous week. Was almost hoping for another war or cataclysm.

There's a lot that is still hard to believe exists in this day and age ... and that gaudy marriage was close to the top

It was such a pleasant change from Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya et al. Here's a link to the party: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/femail/article-1382586/Royal-wedding-party-Slip-ups-downs-sambucca-slammers.html

Of course I was kidding about the bad things to replace it .... but between the wedding and Donald Trump I was gaging. In two weeks I get Star Choice. Were they any better?

Of course! Fewer commercials! Donald Trump, on the other hand, is totally commercial.

Absolutley! We watched it on BBC World (Shaw 501) sans commercials & the blabbering BS of the blond info-babes of the U.S. media. Those amazing overhead revolving camera shots in the Abbey were all BBC-provided & I hope that director gets an emmy.

BTW, Lizzy's post above implies I said something rather witty, but apparently it was not acceptable to somebody as it has now disappeared into the ozone...and God knows I want to be acceptable!...anyway, I would appoligize for my offense, but I have no recollection of what said witicism was...guess I better back off of Bubbas fantasy-tonic...killing off too many brain cells me thinks.

We did, of course, have "full" coverage up here. I think if pics of the parties and breakfast did show up, somebody's head might roll. Seems The Queen was adamant about no press/no pictures.
The media had to be content with showing photos of Prince Charles getting down back in the 70s.

It must have been almost 24/7 "coverage" and commentary for the weeks preceding the wedding. We watched a lot of movies; the pre-wedding hysteria was positively embarrassing. The media were slavering like hungry dogs.
