Since the Queen died I'm ambivalent about royalty, but Mrs BW will watch it all and as I will be in the same room, ensuring no one is wrong on the Internet, I expect I shall catch more than a glimpse. You really should have chosen Ned as a username.

You really should have chosen Ned as a username. BlackisWhite is a bit cumbersome. I'll think about it... EDIT - Call me Ned.

Yes. It's 70 years since the last one and there's no guarantee I'll be around for the next one. It will be fascinating. History in the making. Exactly

With all the sharp implements and tools various, not forgetting things like holly & cactus, gardening poses enough dangers without doing it, au naturel.

Holly and cactus be damned, here its brambles and nettles. A mate of mine of long acquaintance is - how do they like to refer to themselves - a ‘naturist’ thats the phrase. He tells me theres no way on earth he’d be doing THAT !

Surely they must have rehearsed the ceremony beforehand but where could they have done that without any outsider noticing?

The charming proprietor of our hotel asked, at breakfast, if our party wanted to watch the thing.
Half a dozen did, so he left the telly on in the bar for those who were interested.
"I won't be joining you for it, though", he added - "I saw half an hour of breakfast news and I'm already sick of the sight of it.."

Had the TV on in the background and got on with other tasks. Can’t fault the spectacle, but the portion in Westminster Abbey was too long and needs choreographing for the modern era. Too many gaps in procedure, too many unrelated and strange bits of gobbledegook dragged in to the procedure. Abbey portion should be kept to 60 minutes…

Keep an eye out for the RAF.. Dreadful spelling. What's the betting it was written by a Royal Engineer? Should really stick to digging latrines.
