THAT wedding!

'Second hand bit of stuff?' - what a unpleasant term for a divorced woman. It sounds like some old buffer in the 1950s!

I don't suppose Harry s too bothered if you don't like his choice radicalnan She looks a pretty girl and the fact that she kept out of the limelight gives her good brownie points I think ( by the way I m second hand too as are many on here )

"2nd hand bit of fluff"!!! Applies to lots on here - are they to be denigrated too?! What a sour attitude to a young woman's wedding. People are interested precisely because she IS the future Queen's sister. I wish them every happiness, as I do everybody who was married yesterday.

'well worn women make it to the ranks' Oh dear!!!

I was 2nd hand, with a child when I married (happily) for the second time. I was also Very Thin. I could eat whatever I liked and didn't put weight on, sadly that isn't the case any longer.
I saw the photographs on line this morning and was pleased to see a happy, radiant bride. They have pots of money, who am I to put my judgey pants on, moaning that I don't like the Middletons or the Royals, resent the coverage their lives get - then comment on a gransnet thread. Not so disinterested then.

I thought the wedding looked to be a very happy family occasion. The bride had a lovely smile and her dress was exquisite. The two mothers were very elegant too.
Harry and William kept a low profile, and I think it was right that Harry's gf didn't show up until the evening. The children were cute and well behaved. Nice to have the Norland nanny to help so Grandma Middleton didn't have to take over when Kate and William wanted to mingle.

I think the entire Middleton family conduct themselves extremely well. You never hear Carole (from the council flat incase we didn't know) and her husband making any comments. I think the only time I've actually heard them speak is when they visited the hospital after the birth of Prince George. I also think she also dresses extremely well. Similarly with Pippa, who is often accused of acting like royalty. When does she ever open her mouth or do anything to warrant such comments. Catherine has married into the royal family so they are related to two future kings. Would it be better if they all got jobs cleaning in the local pubs?
I think the wedding looked a beautiful happy occasion. No, i wouldn't have put the little pageboys in those gold pantaloons but then i put my lovely bridesmaid in a puffy emerald green number so who am i to comment

I would imagine that the Middletons, especially Mr. would have been perfectly happy just to get on with the wedding without all the hoo ha. Yes, it was OTT but how many other wealthy families have weddings like this which we don't know anything about? Hundreds I should imagine. The press and the public show an indecent interest in anything to do with money, excess, celebrity and royalty and gloat in it. If that's how they want to spend their money, it's their prerogative and who are we to comment? And who are we to comment on who wears what? I think some of the outfits, outrageous as they apparently were to some people, show a bit of individuality and why not wear what you want, so long as it doesn't offend? In my opinion the media interest was excessive in the extreme but that's how it is these days. I think the Middletons conduct themselves very well on the whole, with one or two exceptions, considering being thrust into the limelight and becoming outlaws to the Royals.

Pippa's dress was lovely in my opinion.
I think Kate might look at the photo of herself in that ghastly outfit and think "whatever was I thinking off"
Carole Middleton has beautiful slender legs, she looked fabulous.

'Second hand bit of stuff'? 'Well worn women'? Your remarks are disgustingly offensive to all women, Radicalnan. I bet you don't make remarks like that about men.

Skimmed through. It's a wedding. Unless I know the bride and groom personally I don't have any particular feelings about it. I do however wish them happiness.

Maybe you need to find something else more constructive to do with your time Maw. Very strange post indeed.

What is strange -*SAAK*??
And all the other 61 posts??

Apologies SAAK
I will restrict myself to words of one syllable in future.

SAAK if you are not interested don't bother to post. Obviously others are interested as it has generated 65 posts. Each to their own I say.

I was just saying I wasn't particularly interested in what they wore or who was there etc. I can however post that. so stop swarming

I couldn't personally nit pick about the same things the OP just has either.

I do however think people that have to post in such a negative way need to get a life

No you weren't -SAAK just another piece of gratuitous redness.

IT was a wedding, people wore what they wanted to or felt fitting for the occasion, they were either slim or not so.. no big deal!

Unlike some, I DO "have a life"

Whats redness Maw? have no idea what you mean by that, I do however know that the OP was up her bottom.. Was that you Maw?

For "redness" read "rudeness" (perhaps redness if you prefer)
MYOB too

Not sure what you mean by MYOB. glad you told me what redness meant though.

Let me clarify what I always say on here then.

I don't like people who do what you do. Plain and simple. Its far too hyacinth buck for me.

And that is.....?
