Not anymore.

The Queen needs to hang up her boots and pass the throne to William and his wife (forgot her name?).

Silver Jubilee 1977, the country came to a standstill and every street in UK had street parties.
2002, nothing!

nearly 60 years as Queen is 3 generations and far too long.
Agree anyone?

I feel bad for Kate actually. Seems like this is the end of her life as she knew it, her identity will no longer be her own.

She seems like a really sweet and genuine girl, I hope it works out for her but I have my doubts, considering the royal family's history.

No identity here, but we like them. William and Kate can only elevate Britain's image around the world.

Well, it's her choice. I feel more sorry for those who are born into a royal family.

It astounds me that it is expected the nation will be stirred up into an excited frenzy over the formalisation of two persons' intent to remain as long term partners. They want to get married? So be it...but why should I have to be made aware of it, or more accurately, constantly updated about it whenever I put the news on? They mean nothing to me, they have done nothing to earn my curiousity or concern for their well being or happiness.

I actually feel a greater weight of shame than pride; shame that I share the same nationality as people for whom the wedding of two strangers will be the happiest and most memorable day of their lives! Makes us look like a nation of chumps. 😞

I am sure the Commonwealth is desperate to put its

ferociously by the proud natives of Omaha.

After all, look at what happened to Diana.

Innocence lost, and all that followed.

It means I get a day off work.

Some rich girl is marrying one of the biggest benefit scroungers in the country, not at lot to be proud of if you ask me. As for national identity, I look forward to seeing that during the clashes between the royalists, the EDL, police and various protesters that will undoubtedly be the media highlight of the event.

Hmm, so many anti-Royalist comments from those engaged in playing a game involving Kings and Queens!
The royal wedding doesn't mean anything to me personally, but I hope they have a good life together - just the same as I would wish for any two people getting married. This wedding is an event in the history of the British monarchy and that is how I view it. You don't have to be a Royalist to witness an historical moment. πŸ™‚
