Now that the big event is history, check out this Royal Wedding Fashion Report Card (19 photos in all) put together by the folks at Yahoo.

Hello, world! This blog began on September 28, 2007, and so far nobody has come looking for me
with tar and feathers.
On my honor, I will do my best not to bore you. All comments are welcome
as long as your discourse is civil and your language is not blue.
Happy reading, and come back often!
And whether my cup is half full or half empty, fill my cup, Lord.

Non-controversial? Likening the Princess Royal to a "charwoman" is a treasonable offence in England (and in those other countries we lumbered ourselves with). You should thank your lucky stars you live in darkest Georgia! If you ever return to England there is every chance that you will be clapped in irons and taken to The Tower where you might be stretched on "the rack" and whipped with nettles or made to watch endless re-runs of The Jerry Springer Show!

ReplyDeleteThe wedding was spectacular. I loved the couple and wish them the best in life.
ReplyDeleteYP, I could withstand the rack and the nettles, but I would crumble before endless re-runs of The Jerry Springer show.
ReplyDeleteAnonymous, were you referring to me or to YP?
Lady, don't tell anybody, but moi aussi.
