As a Republican au fond I won't be waving flags or madly draping my house with Union Jacks for Kate and Wills wedding.
Republican I may be, but I hope I am not mealy mouthed about it. So I wish them well, they appear to be a charming couple and almost Scandinavian as far as Royals go.
Talking of Republicans, one notes the hordes of French press here to cover the event. I asked one,
"Any regrets?"
What do you mean?"
"Well you guillotined your lot."
"Je ne regrete rien" he chortled.
Apparently more then 2 billion will view the ceremony on television. Which makes one wonder why are we so hungry for ceremony?
I don't have a television so that rules me out, but there is always U Tube so no doubt I will be sneaking a look now and then, too difficult not to.
