The K11OG spans the world. Very Happy

So Cathy and I have to ask others, especially those in the Commonwealth, what they thought of the BIG wedding. But more importantly, how this affects the future of the Royalty, England and the extended Empire?

Gill and I thought the day, the wedding, the pageantry and especially Will & Kate were just great and it makes you proud to be a BRIT Cool

Despite what we've seen and heard in the media over the past few years the Royals and especially the Queen are extremely well liked and I reckon will go from strength to strength with Will & Kate around Very Happy

Just wish I could have been there for the celebrations and parties etc, they know how to have a good old knee's up over there. Laughing

For me it meant few police or others on the roads during the day so ideal to get the bikes out for a play...... kept the fun to the evening Very Happy

In France, we have a different opinion regarding kings and queens, I guess you all know what happened to the last ones. Laughing

I would rather saw my arm off with a dead parrot than watch a royal wedding, but at least there was one good photo from it:-

Well John,

You seemed to have stirred up some very diverse comments from your posting Wink

mind you I still think I'm right Cool

Great pic drikko, I must have missed that part through all the tears of joy I was shedding at the time Laughing

If it gets another decent in cockpit view of the Avro Lancaster, spitfire and hurricane flying together, they can get married every week as far as I am concerned. Oh, and we got an extra day off. That was spent having a very pleasant run out on my Brick.

Vive La Republique

Cheers.

Rich.

P.s.

It is rumoured that Kate asked the queen how to fit with the royal family.

The answer (allegedly) was ''Always wear your seatbelt, and dont piss me off'' Laughing

Haha, classic Rich, at least you knew there wouldn't be many mr plods around.

If you want to see inside old planes wouldn't it be easier to go to the Goodwood Festival?

Apparently, William said he didn't want the Traditional Fruitcake at the wedding, Philip said " fuck him I'm going anyway".
Very Happy
