    Obviously releasing the 'news' now so that the factories in China can start making the souvenirs:rolleyes: and as others have said it's very reminiscent of 1981 when things were equally bad and depressing.:(

    Didn't you know that waving or little flags, tugging our forelocks and doffing our caps will make us all feel so much better. :rolleyes:

    Can you imagine the shame if any of our guests declined our invitation so they could watch the royal wedding instead :eek::D

    It makes me laugh and is also a shame how when the British public hear some good news for a change it is all doom and gloom and complaints and mentions of war and death and paying for them etc etc.
    I am no royalist but for god's sake will nothing cheer this miserable country up?

    Please explain how two irrelevant vapid upper-class twits announcing a wedding date is supposed to be good news? :confused:

    Why? I don't know all that much about her :confused:

    Good question and one which I will attempt to answer.
    Quite simply being a monarchist she just doesnt fit. The future King of England (if the monarchy is to survive) cannot marry some tom and dick and harry that runs a 'party' company, He should be marrying someone with an aristocratic background. It wont be long before you are hearing that her family will be having to have security paid for by guess who and in these economic times that is just a nonsense but thats another story.

    Genuine answer: because it makes a lot of people happy. Just as one of the UK countries (or the UK for that matter) winning some major sports title makes a lot of people, though not me personally, happy. I mean, I quite enjoy watching someone do a parade of honour on top of an open bus through cheering crowds, even if I am a bit vague about what they have achieved. Ditto a royal wedding - who honestly would refuse to have a drink and a smile if the news bulletins are full of happy faces for once?

    If there was, I'd volunteer to go to work for the day - unpaid.

    I wouldn't drink to them, and I'm certainly not happy for them. It's 2010, the monarchy is a bloody joke.

    congratulations to them both, its very easy to be cynical about them getting married now but in the end theyve been together for numerous years; anytime they eventually got married someone somewhere would have the hump about it, if it was the olympic year they'd get booed for taking the spotlight away from the games, if it was the year after people would moan about the cost of the wedding and the jubilee. Dont know whats in store for 2014 but someone here would find a reason to begrudge them their happiness.

    To my knowledge Kate has never given a reason for people to hate her. She's rich, pretty and recieved a good education if thats the reason people dont want her to be queen, would you rather Prince William met someone off the Jeremy Kyle show?

    I've never been a huge fan of Kate Middleton, but accept she's probably had unfair treatment by the press, so congratulations to them!

    I hope their wedding isn't on the same day as mine! :D

    Don't say that! In years to come, if you have a wedding date in common with the sovereign, you may be invited to Buck House for a nosh-up. You may just as well accept it and enjoy the caviar, champagne and anything else on offer, never look a gift horse in the mouth. :D

    Well you be happy in your misery. If it will help, I will have your share of the day's happiness. I will even drink your share of the drink.

    Yes you are. Just you. No one else will need to pay a penny. Sorry.
