to be in hysterics over this? (Royal Wedding related - kinda)

[LifeIsButtercream]

Ok, I'm neither a Royalist or an anti-Royalist, and kinda neutral about the whole Royal Wedding thing.

MIL bought DD (2) the Royal Wedding Happyland set from ELC, DD has quite a large Happyland collection, and she happily set about playing with it. It has a Happyland Queen, Prince Phil, William and Kate figure, a Beefeater and a horse and carriage.

I'm now in hysterics on the floor over some of the things she has done with it:

• she put Prince Phil in an enclosure of her Happyland Zoo

• the Queen was stood in the bath of her Happyland house and ordered, rather forcefully, to "Dance!"

• William was fed to her dinosaur, and declared to be "yummy"

• Kate was run over by her own carriage, then made to go to school

• the Beefeater was put in the train, which was being driven by a sheep, and is still on an endless journey to nowhere.

............. I could go on. Should I take it that my daughter is not a Royalist? I wonder what Freud would have to say about all this.......

I wonder if it is a premonition of what will go on on the day

Oh one can only hope so gorionine I'll definately tune in to watch that!!

Particularly like Prince Philip's fate. Perhaps it will keep him out of trouble for a while!

So will I It especially the Royal Jurassic park bit!

I shall be watching the royal wedding closely to see if your dd is psychic. What an exciting wedding that would be!

Brilliant! I'm going to get DS the Happyland Wedding set for exactly this reason and I've posted this before but one of would also be good.

HAHAHA

Please film it and put it online, Adam and Joe style! I particularly love the existential sheep-driven Beefeater

Your daughter sounds fabulous!

She's smart, I've always thought that being a Royal is like being in a zoo. They're bred in captivity and have to put on little skits and shows (i.e. Weddings) for the public's amusement.

That sounds AMAZING! Could you please make a video? I'm still giggling at the thought

Another vote for a video here - please :)

Genius :o

My DS2 immediately chucked Kate out of the royal carriage and replaced her with a corgi

Our local Mothercare has child-sized cardboard cut outs of the William & Kate characters with holes where the faces are. I have photos of utterly disgusted looking DS1 and DD poking their faces through.

^^

YES!

OMG I didn't even know there was a royal wedding happyland set. :o

There is a Happyland Royal Wedding set?

I might check it out How naff.

My DD has binned Prince Philip, the Beefeater and the Corgi!

We can't find them anywhere so I'm guessing she's managed to get them into the kitchen bin wihtout me seeing!!

She also did this with one of the "hide and squeak" eggs. DS was in tears so I'm going to have to buy a whole other set!
