According to Twitter this is a real step up

@Howsimplywonderful That is laughable. How many earthshot winners has he drawn attention to? They were not even at the ceremony. The attention was on William and Kate and all the press was about Kates dress.

I've been through a lot of jubilees now and there's always a worry by the palace that no one will turn out. But people always do. Didn't people say they didn't care about Harry and Meghans wedding and they moaned about paying for it. But, on the day, it had huge viewing figures - including me! 😄 I love a royal wedding.
I bet loads of people haven't even given the weekend any thought as yet. There are loads of events around so I'm sure late thinkers will be joining in them.
But people don't have to go to anything if they don't want. They can spend the BH in a myriad of different ways and I'm sure they'll have a lovely time. I do think it's mean, though, when people wish ill on those who wish to celebrate. And even more that people would try to disrupt people enjoying themselves. But people can be rude so I guess, although it's not nice, it's to be expected.

It was the Harry and Meghan haters who said no one would turn up for their wedding. It was always a daft idea. They keep saying no one is interested in them, but in reality it is their names that sell press articles and fill forum threads.

People will turn up at the Mall. There are always Royalists keen to support them. Lots of people will turn the TV on for a short while out of curiosity - especially if it is raining, so being outside is less attractive. But most people are still meh about it all.

I didnt need to put the details together. I knew those things.

@poppysockies wasn't being critical about Meghan's behavior. She was making up stuff about Meghan wanting to attend the Met Gala and the fact she wasn't there meant she wasn't invited and that she wasn't an A Lister. No one knows what goes on in anyone's head. Meghan may be gutted because she.didn't get an invite OR hanging out with those people, some of whom are truly vile is not a cup of tea.

Making up lies is vile behaviour

Blimey, I feel like I've said it maybe twice? Apologies if more.

There is a frenzy of excitement every time I turn the telly on!

Making up lies is vile behaviour

At swearing at people is OK?
I haven't really been following what people have said so can't agree or disagree. But it's the royal thread. Lying is part of the contribution. 😁 Both the fors and the antis do it.
I've been told that I'm wrong, acting in bad faith and must stop posting on this thread, for saying the Archewell is a public charity and not a private foundation. But it doesn't change the fact I'm right so there's no point getting worked up about it. You like Meghan. One person's comments, won't change that and Meghan is living and enjoying her life while you're trading insults on her behalf and she doesn't know or care.
I've found if I step away for several hours or a day, when I come back, it all seems a lot pettier and less important than I remembered it. 😂

The actual event isn't happening until Saturday, is everyone honestly expected to be in a frenzy of excitement in the weeks leading up to it?
I'd imagine many people that are interested will just enjoy a few hours of enjoyment on the actual day

You'd think so wouldn't you? But it's not stopped the incessant emails from the Chair of our local Community Association, insisting something's GOT to be done to mark the occasion and what "a poor show" it is that nobody's volunteered.
The latest one, only yesterday, even said everyone should be "ashamed of themselves" ... thanks, pal

Clearly there are a few communities here and there who do want a fuss, and good luck to them; I hope they have a lovely day, but overall I'm just not seeing it

The point is very little is being planned, they can't whip up enough volunteers for the Big Help Out, and not many places are decorated.
A Coronation is a very big deal. It doesn't appear to be in the run up.

But yours is just your tiny experience. It's sad no one's invited you anywhere. But round us, there's tons going on and we've things planned for all 3 days.

I don't care about swearing. I've never met Meghan so i dont know if i like her. Im hate vile gossips and liars.

Well, I was just trying to be helpful because you seem like a nice person who would likely regret getting carried away. But you know yourself better than me.

👏👏Well done @Nightlystroll you were indeed correct on the Archewell issue and I do like the cut of you jib😊.

@Nightlystroll No need to feel sad, we are seeing friends, but not for the Coronation.
And it is not just my experience. I would expect to see houses decorated around me. None are. Some were decorated for the Silver Jubilee.
Fairly few street parties have been organised. Far fewer than for the Silver Jubilee.
Even most retailers are not doing much.
I think most people are not anti Monarchy like I am, they just do not care.

I can't bear meghan's victimhood whining, so a step away from that and back to actually getting on with something real is a look i can respect more. I can see the game she's playing now and she's played a blinder hasnt she, i think she just overdid it a bit with the whining and poor me, pontificating about morality etc but she could pull it back. Sadly i suspect dropping harry soonish is inevitable. He is an utter laughing stock since that book.

Oh God! Why do so many of you want their marriage to break up and Harry to leave his kids. Bloody awful.

Yep poor Archie and Lillibet

I think it’s much of a muchness- some people are going OTT, some people will celebrate the weekend, some will watch a on the day, some will forget it’s happening and some will be very much against the whole thing. We’ve seen a gamut here.

Sadly i suspect dropping harry soonish is inevitable.

If she drops Harry then what?

We're on holiday at the moment and everywhere is decorated - every single town we've been in has acres of bunting, shop window displays, all the villages have coronation lunches, picnics, teas happening, the local pubs all have events planned.

We noticed during the course of the week the numbers of houses with decorations is increasing day by day.

So despite all the posts on all the threads on here suggesting no-one is interested, doesn't seem that way in the real world at all.

Why would Harry leave his kids - 50/50 custody is the norm in California.
I don’t want them to separate- they are well suited.

@8roses people pushing this narrative want Harry to come back to the UK and move in with his family. He would not have 50:50, the kids need nurseries and schools and not to fly back and forward each week.

@Coxspurplepippin where are you on holiday?

Cheshire. Are you about to make some comment about thick working class northern peasants who are happy to doff caps and pull forelocks?

I don't want them to divorce. Awful for the kids and perpetuating a cycle of disrupted family and parenting. Whether Harry will be happy long term, or even if Meghan is happy long term with a loose cannon like Harry, no one knows. But he will stick with his kids.

What I see is they will lead typical lives of both working on their own projects, and not this ridiculous 'salt and pepper' crap. That a far more normal way to live than his and hers desks and a joint office.

Then they can enjoy their time together with the kids.

Whether it's what Harry envisioned I'm not sure, but Meghan is prepared to work hard networking etc, so it should be successful long term. Provided we dont have any more mud slinging, it's all good.

I'm decent and truthful but nice is subjective.. i grew up on the 70s being told that girls should be nice and not lose contol. But i just don't know my place.
