Is Liz likely to give Jack a title tomorrow do we think?

QueenOfTheAndals · 11/10/2018 14:33

Highly doubt it. Even Andrew isn't as blind as to demand one, I should think!

Did they give their bank a/c no. requesting financial contributions? Really?

Where is the registry - Harrods?

QueenOfTheAndals · 11/10/2018 15:00

I don't think they'd be as vulgar as that but it's probably somewhere Sloaney like Harvey Nicks or Peter Jones.

We could send our own gifts to Buckingham Palace. Who's been on the Shitty Homemade Christmas Presents thread for inspiration?

Right, tiara and ball gown will be donned at 9.25am tomorrow morning. Let's sofa surf this wedding with a live commentary and no one, I repeat no one, is allowed to go to the loo between 10am and 11.45am. Solidarity, sisters!

I just snorted at this. I'm wondering what tacky shit I could parcel up and send to BP. I'm in France so they'd have to reply. I'm going to go to the Market on Saturday to dig out some tourist tat!

I'm hearing you all, my friends! Sadly, I have to work from 8am to 4pm, won't be able to see a tv or check online! Will look forward to reading your comments!! Smile

My boss is away tomorrow so I can watch the wedding in relative peace. And it's Friday 🍷

SenecaFalls · 11/10/2018 18:46

I've managed to take the day off work, which is a good thing because it starts at 4:25 a.m. on the east coast of the US. And since I'm a night owl, I may just stay up until it starts and then crash when it is over.

Butterymuffin · 11/10/2018 18:57

I'm able to work flexibly tomorrow so I can take time for the wedding. So I will be reporting for duty with coffee and toast on my sofa at 9.25. Not sure I can find my tiara or I'd put it on!

Dontfeellikeamillenial · 11/10/2018 18:57

You're on the east coast too seneca, I am too. Not sure I can get up at 4.30am though!

QueenOfTheAndals · 11/10/2018 19:06

I think we may need a new thread by about lunchtime tomorrow!

Thank you don't for linking to my Playmo wedding thread!

Fortunately I have requested the day off work tomorrow, so will be able to view the wedding as it happens, while posting the Playmobil one on MN. Smile

RainbowsArePretty · 11/10/2018 19:27

I'll be watching tomorrow. Very excited!

Butterymuffin · 11/10/2018 19:31

Maybe we need a specific live wedding comment thread, since this one is really general Royal style and will get swallowed up? Could someone start one at about 9am tomorrow and link it here? 👑

BrightonGallery7 · 11/10/2018 19:47

Probably best to mute if ITV’s morning people are doing the commentary.

JessiCake · 11/10/2018 19:49

Late to the party here sorry and I know the thread has moved on to the wedding... but I just wanted to pop on the thread to ask if I'm the only one who can't believe how astonishingly similar Kate looks to Diana? Yes, I know she's a long-haired brunette not a short-haired blonde. But some of the pics from the V&A night (I disliked the dress but her face and figure looked sensational) made me do a double-take with how like Diana's face hers is.

Is it only me?!

Will try and find a link to post...

JessiCake · 11/10/2018 19:54

Sigh. Computer on the blink and can't find proper pic to post (and can only find Daily Mail links anyway...). But honestly, she really looks like Diana (at certain angles)! I swear...

Very good idea.

Jackietheduck · 11/10/2018 20:40

I will be able to watch it until 10.45am. What time does Eugenie arrive at the church? Please don’t say 10.45!!!!

gingercat02 · 11/10/2018 20:47

I'll be at work but hopefully it will be on in the waiting room so I'll have to find a really important job out there. Not really sure what that would be 🤣

GreyPJs · 11/10/2018 20:55

@BrightonGallery7 absolutely agree with you.

No gift list and no asking for money is the only way to do it.

QueenOfTheAndals · 11/10/2018 21:16

@JessiCake No you're not alone, I've always thought Kate looks like Diana too. The long brown hair fools most people but stick a blonde wig on her and it'd become blindingly obvious!

QueenOfTheAndals · 11/10/2018 21:20

I'll start a new thread in the morning for the wedding, so that we can keep this one for general royal style chat. Well probably need a new one by the end of next week anyway, for H&M down under and the Max/Wax visit.

I don't know about any of you, but I'm rather looking forward to our little virtual gathering tomorrow!
