Kate can't stop giggling. And I think she's laughing AT the singers!

HmmThinkingAboutIt · 03/06/2012 18:01

The only way they could have got those singers more wrong would have been if they had been wearing white.

it's finally fun
long to rain over us

NigellasGuest · 03/06/2012 18:02

singers could have been given umbrellas

I reckon the Queen is off home for a long bath full of bubbles sipping on a glass of something chilled.

Apparently she likes a martini of an afternoon.

bet she could do with a whisky or at least a hot toddy right now though.

And Prince Phillip is 90 - same age as DH's grandad. There is no chance DH's grandad could cope with all that esp in that weather.

Someone get the Queen a mug of tea or something. Poor love.

scarletforya · 03/06/2012 18:03

Let the poor woman have a cuppa and a sit down! Jeezz!

NigellasGuest · 03/06/2012 18:03

Only in good on england, what is the phase about mad dogs and english men.

Any othe country in the world would have gone home at the first speck of rain but we just put on a mac and carry on.

I love this country and i have loved the whole thing even the crappy bbc.

Toomanyworriedsonhere · 03/06/2012 18:03

I think she's amazing - on her feet and no tea all afternoon

Cuckoomama · 03/06/2012 18:04

Wow spent a lot on fireworks didn't they?

RabidAnchovy · 03/06/2012 18:04

Thank God that's over.

LONG LIVE THE QUEEN

Skimped on the fireworks didn't they? They were probably thinking they didn't want to shoot down the fly past.

scarletforya · 03/06/2012 18:06

Hulababy · 03/06/2012 18:07

Hyperthermia might be more likely!

HmmThinkingAboutIt · 03/06/2012 18:07
