Prince William and Kate Middleton want their wedding to be a “people’s ceremony” with as many ordinary members of the public invited as possible.I understand their reasoning and I'm sure their hearts are in the right place, but the couple does need reminding that when someone suggests "the people's" anything (whether it be republic, palace, army, or princess), they are invariably up to no good.
Rules for submitting comments:
1. No profanity. I maintain the pretense that this is a family-friendly site.
2. Stay on topic. A bit of straying and off-hand commenting is okay, but hijacking the discussion is right out.
3. No ad hominem attacks. Attack the subject, not the other person on the thread and keep the discussion civil.
4. No spamming or commercial endorsements. These get deleted immediately.
Tip: Beware of putting hyperlinks in your comments–especially at the end. For some reason, Blogger interprets these as spam.
Note: Due to the recent spate of anonymous spamming, registration for comments is now required.
Oh, no, David, please not you too!
ReplyDeletePlease! I beg of you! Don't talk about this subject! I don't even read newspapers, I just listen to Radio 4, and already I'm sick of the whole damned wedding thing. If it continues to stay at this level of intensity (or, God forbid) increase from now until the event, I shall sadly be forced to lose my mind and start hitting people with sticks whilst bellowing unmentionable words into their ears.
