Tomorrow Princess Juliet will be marrying Mr Peregrine Banksbrook. The ceremony will take place at Ruggington Cathedral because let's face it we don't have any other Playmobil churches and will be conducted by the Archbishop of Ruggington, assisted by the Dean of Lowbeach-on-Sea, with an address given by the Bishop of Highbath, the Right Reverend Balthazar Browne.

The ceremony will be followed by a carriage procession, and a reception in the grounds of Roundwood palace.

In Ruggington, the streets are being cleaned ready for tomorrow.

Love these threads!
It’s chucking it down here, what’s the weather like in Playmoland?!

If the winds get any worse those catching the ferry may have to call on these guys!

This is amazing! Looking forward to this more than the actual wedding! I am amazed at the level of detail you put in SoMuch, how long does it take you to set it all up and photograph it? Thinking about the logistics makes my head spin. Blush

Yes, there will be plenty of tv coverage. All the Playmo people who aren't actually attending the wedding will be able to watch the whole event on television!

There’s always the possibility of a second referendum or an election before we get to the Plexit special.

Dorothea is married to Inigo Nelson, and they have two children, Julius and Clemntine. Peregrine is getting married tomorrow!

holiday it would have to be a Plexit special. Although when we had a referendum, the Playmo people voted remain!

Family tree goes like this...

King of Playmoland is King Athelstan, married to Queen Edith.

They have four children. The eldest, Prince Jeremiah is married to Jemima and they have 3 children, Prince Henry, Princess Harriet and Princess Helena. Athelstan and Edith's second child Princess Juliet is getting married tomorrow! Athelstan and Edith's third child Prince Jared married Annabel Widdleton in 2011. They have 3 children, Prince Cornelius, Princess Madeline and baby Prince Flavian. Athelstan and Edith's 4th child Prince Josiah married Serena Sparkle in May this year.

King Athelstan's younger brother Redwald is married to Ethel. They have two sons Jabez and Augustus, and a daughter Felicity. Jabez is married to Alexandra and they have two children, Matilda and Barnabas. Augustus is married to Georgina, Felicity is single.

King Athelstan's younger sister Alfreda is married to Osric. They have four children, Jasper, Lavinia, Raife and Petronella. Jasper is married to Zuleika and they have two children, Dorian and Perdita. Lavinia is married to Aubyn. Raife is married to Lucinda. Petronella is married to Quinton.

I think that's it for the royal family tree.

This is brilliant! I love your dedication!

How about in 2019 you do a Brexit special? You know, the odd riot, shelves in the shops stripped bare, motorways to ports completely congested, and politicians claiming everything will be hunky dory GrinShock

ApolloandDaphne · 11/10/2018 22:51

I love G and S musicals. Bring it on! Am so very excited about this wedding.

Yay!!!!!!!!

I do feel we need a copy of the royal family tree just to fully understand who is related to whom. (Perhaps in a souvenir programme...)

TokyoSushi · 11/10/2018 22:40

Brilliant! Thanks for doing this again!

PrincessIsAUnicorn · 11/10/2018 22:38

I'm not missing this, I didn't see the last one Sad
Sounds amazing

Rafa, I think this RL wedding has been a bit neglected in the media. But we in Playmoland have been planning for months! It will be quite an event in Ruggington!

yorkshireyummymummy · 11/10/2018 22:34

Oh I will be checking in @ 10am!
I’m sure your coverage will be much better than the ITV coverage of the other wedding in Windsor.

Isn’t it marvellous to think that maybe more people will watch the Rugginton wedding than the Windsor one!

I’ve baked a cake and got a tea tray ready........blow those royal trumpets for Princess Juliet & Peregrine.

Looking forward to seeing her dress!! X

HarveySchlumpfenburger · 11/10/2018 22:33

Wasn’t expecting a Playmoland thread. Very pleased to see it, although I’m going to miss seeing the wedding live tomorrow.

Singing, I'm sure Brendan can budge up a bit...

elephant, sorry you can't make it until the evening. But at least I can post during the day this time, so there will be plenty to catch up with when you get home!
