The above picture shows my cool/lame attempt to celebrate the wedding. I'm also wearing a white vest top, red tights and blue shorts. 100% British flag colour scheme for me today. Please excuse the rather frantic look on my face, I'm no good at posed photographs.
Now, as much as I find the fact we still have a royal family here a slightly old fashioned and strange concept I am happy for the couple and I think, although we do PAY taxes for all their wealth, the royals do contribute to society. The amount of charity work a lot of them do is wonderful and Prince William seems like quite a grounded, friendly guy... I really don't admire the couple's wedding though; with the security, police and hundreds of people in the room they don't even know. I mean Kate couldn't just turn to her husband to be and say "let's just have a quiet wedding with a small reception and one tier cake" could she? There was no choice in the matter. Ugh, I just generally find the lives of famous people quite sad- EVERYONE should be entitled to privacy. I don't mean to put a damper on today but I just think it's unfair that Kate Middleton had to essentially chose between marrying who she loved and living a life of privacy and stability. Obviously, I don't know everything about how the royal family are treated, nowadays. I suppose they get a lot more respect and discretion being, you know, royal but I, personally, think it's a shame.
Anyway, happy wedding, I'm proud to be British etcetera, etcetera... Bye!
