and as I watched it I thought that a President, even if he or she lived there for one or two terms, would not have the same continuing interest and investment in all of that - they would take what they could get whilst in office then be off to make more millions on the world stage.

It was interesting to watch Countryfile the other evening - your post about tradition reminded me of that anniebach.

I, too, like tradition and that fact that the RF saw themselves as custodians of Windsor Great Park and all that they have done to preserve the trees, the wildlife there for the enjoyment of all and long may it continue.

Good for you oldbatty I often find odd snippets on youtube that make me laugh or cheer me up.

paddyann people with no lives? be very grateful that your life is so full that you have no time to look at things that other people enjoy. Long may it last.

That's fair enough oldbatty just curiosity on my part.

We are not meant to be looking at anything in particular. I was just having a look and found it interesting to see the different style and the various guests. David Cameron earning a round of applause for example when he arrived. Just silly little bits and pieces that interest me and pass the time.

I loved Williams wedding. I was just watching the Queen at the Chelsea Flower Show. She was smiling away and looking very happy. Unlike her attitude at the more recent Royal wedding. Says a lot...

What are we meant to be looking at?

I do have a life. I have a huge amount of stress at the moment. I'm not obsessed with the royals but I was idly flicking around on you tube.

annsixty.....dunno? just felt like it. It was quite interesting as a screen shot of life 7 years ago.

People with no lives...latching onto people who dont know they exist and couldn't care less...except when their cash cow dries up .Sad .

Why would you I wonder?

It was a lovely service , I like tradition when it comes to these events

All the politicians and in some cases their wives look funny. Harry looks like a hungover ragamuffin.
The royals look quite jolly.
The music was amazing.
