From 2.30pm, people will be taking their places on the lawn and getting into the party spirit, with a jam packed afternoon of eight local bands, crafty crown making for the children and a traditional tea tent.

2.30-7.30pm Live music and craft activities free! Tea tent and children’s activities from 2.30-5.30pm, with music all day ’til 7.30pm!"

True that. LOL But don't underestimate the powerful French TV entertainment industry. Actually I've lied a bit, two days ago my girlfriend said her co-workers had a discussion about the wedding at work. One of the girls was disappointed in the prince's choice (obviously). And that's really all I've heard about the issue.

Lucky you, it's both Internet and TV madness down here.

I wouldn't mind watching the ceremony.

I didn't know you guys got a free day off from work for those things.  With all the coverage you'd think I'd know that, but then we do pretty much flip the channel.  Helps if you avoid the morning shows.
 
It's a wonder we get any work done at all.

I couldn't care less. I still have to work, so I get nothing.
And for a moment when our world had filled the skies, Magic turned our eyes,
To feast on the treasure set for our strange device

I understand the food at the reception will include traditional English fare as kreplach, latkes, matzo ball soup, and kugel.

I do not care about the wedding, but I am not tired of the wedding coverage because I don't watch TV. I've heard about it more from people who are complaining about it than from actual news organizations.
if you own a sodastream i hate you
