Royal Wedding
I am a HUGE sucker for weddings. LOVE. Totally obsessed. The royal wedding though...?
Meh.
I thought it was cool - good for her, I thought, eight long years you go girl! My plans for the big day? Watch it on TV with the 4 bagillion other people, even though I live 5 miles away from the wedding venue.
And then, in a last minute "I-love-weddings-must-freak-out-and-obsess-over-them" moment...I decided to go see the wedding - with the bagillion other people doing the same thing.
camping out in front of Buckingham Palace |
We went to a pub that was kiddy-corner from Westminster. Even though we were so close, I felt so far away. My plan? Watch the wedding on the TV in the pub and cheer as the vehicles carrying the royal wedding party drove down the road behind me. Thats close enough, right?
I *might* have found the flag on the street and proceeded to carry it around with me all day...whatevs |
ummmm....for reals? |
we caught Wills and Kate snogging at the pub before the ceremony |
And then...I felt a little flutter in my stomach (it may or may not have been because of the champagne...)
first champers of the day...possibly at 10am... |
Pippa and the little ones on the way to the chapel |
And then.
Oooohhhhh and then.
It was time.
I dragged Brian out of the pub, away from his beer, and scrambled up his back like a little monkey....
That is the closest I will EVER get to royalty in my life.
Not too bad if you ask me.
