Edit - am I the only one who doesn't think the sister looks particularly attractive?

Nope.

Nope.

She was very orange, whereas Kate had normal-looking skin tone.

According to the BBC

Some royal wedding guests said they were feeling a little jaded today.

Not Pippa? He's old enough to be her father.

Apparently she is often seen in these parts.

Nope.

On Australian TV, the two Fergie girls were described as looking like they were straight from a fairy tale.

How could actual photos of an ideal exist?

Very tactful answer. Wife looking over your shoulder ?

TODM was very impressed that Ms Middleton copied her wedding dress design.

Treated ourselves to the souvenir issue of Hello! today. £2 well spent

Yes.
Yes it is.

I have this nagging feeling of class war in the back of my head, something to do with David Cameron bigging it up and saying what a great place Britain is on the back of the wedding. That'll be the millionaire David Cameron, descended from William IV*, then.

~~Kate~~ Catherine doesn't have to worry about money or hard work for the rest of her life, but I suppose she does have tremendous pressure to pop out a (preferably male, to put off the tricky gender equality question for another generation) sprog asap, since she's knocking on a bit for a royal bride.

*an illegitimate line, of course

Actually, I think highly of the Queen but there are too many hangers-on and "Hons".

Esteem for one individual isn't a valid argument for any system of government, though. Not that disdain for one would, by itself, be an argument against.

Well my 'avoid the Royal wedding' sailing trip round Mull was going acording to plan until yesterday. Picked the yacht up Thursday night and spent each night in one remote achorage after another - a magic trip and good weather

Stopped at Crinan harbour for lunch on monday before handing the yacht back to the charter base at Ardfern and what should come nosing into Crinan accompanied by a small patrol boat but the Hebridean Princess? - a small luxury cruise liner with a track record of being chartered by the royal family - and with what the guys with the binoculars assured me was what looked like a recently married royal couple sitting on the promenade deck aft.

I did wonder what a photo might have been worth but 1 - my camera was down below on my bunk and 2 - I would have felt bad about it anyway - I don't think anyone took any pictures - we'll never make paparazzi

Of all the mind-numbing, vomit-inducing bollocks I've failed to ignore during this whole cloying saga, this has to take the biscuit.

Sarah Ferguson tells Oprah Winfrey: 'Diana and I both weren't there' | UK news | The Guardian

Quote

The Duchess of York said that although she found it difficult to cope with not being invited to the royal wedding she isn't bitter about being snubbed and takes solace in the fact that Prince William's mother was also absent.

"I really love the feeling that sort of Diana and I both weren't there," said Sarah Ferguson in a television interview with Oprah Winfrey, during which Prince Andrew's former wife suggested that there was no one to blame but herself for her lack of an invite.

And the word "invite" is not a noun.

Did they not send his mother an invite? Shocking bad manners, that.

The royals would be much more interesting if they married more people like Fergie, and less like Di.

Not in Fergie's case, its more and less.
