I've been moaning about it all week, but actually didn't mind watching it, Was working so caught bits and bobs. Nice dress, nice service, I liked the personal touch with the car with tins on.

I didn't really give the wedding much thought until today, but the coverage has been great. Good to see lots of people enjoying themselves, a nice contrast to all of the doom and gloom of late.

I said to myself that I would not watch it. Still did though.

Only seen about 15 mins of it live during the interval on the snooker go to say all military stuff I've seen on the news since is still quite impressive.

The comedians must have been watching though. It wasn't until late this afternoon before I got the first slightly distasteful by text regarding the wedding.

Kate Middleton asks the Queen whats the secret to a long and successful marriage? The Queen replies "Wear a seatbelt and don't f**king piss me off!"

I have an honest question - What makes you say it makes you proud to be English, rather than proud to be British?

I was surprised to see that as a question (optional) in the recent Census. After a little bit of thought I decided to leave it blank. Perhaps best not go down this road eh ?

Thank's for the respectful and intelligent way you ask the question.

I am proud to be British, I'm even more proud to be English also.
Same as I love an English team to win the Champions League, whoever they are, but I love my own premier football team most. I love all religions but I love my own religion best. Human nature I suspect.
