A ROYAL WEDDING

Posted on 2:45 AM by follow me

There has not been this many column inches given to the Union Jack flag since Geri Halliwell sang wearing a tea towel covered in the red and white cross back in the olden days. When things were great and the Spice Girls ruled the world. Those were the days...good times. 


I am in Singapore and cannot escape Royal Wedding fever so I dread to imagine what is going on across the pond. A Singaporean even asked if "Great Britain would be decorated in bunting"...I did not have the heart to tell her that most had booked a holiday over the two weeks of bank holidays and that not many cared too much for the Royal family apart from the obvious nuts who are already camping at Westminster. Nuts.
I have to confess I am no Royalist, but living abroad gives the UK a shiny new look. Fantasies of red buses, black cabs, tea at the Ritz that have come from meeting new people who have never graced our freezing, muddy shores or caught the Brighton to Gatwick train at midnight! This is becoming a problem.

Luckily I have found some fellow like minded Brits in Singapore who want to party and have the wedding on in the background. So on Friday night (due to time zones, the Royal wedding will be on when it is cocktail hour in Singapore)I along with some new friends will hoorah and ooh and ahh at the British Royal Wedding Parade.




What are you all doing? Celebrating? Hosting? Ignoring? Tell me, tell me!
