    I'm happy to say that I had no idea a royal was being married until now. Personally, I don't believe royals exist, except for Ally.

      Don't listen to Michael. My wife and I are going to have some scones, strawberry jam, clotted cream, and a couple of pots of Earl Grey during the festivities. I haven't stayed up all night since I was in university but, for this, I'll be glad to.

          Jordan,

          Do you mean how do my wife and I pay for our scones, etc., or how does the Great British Public pay for Royal weddings?

            It's so grand. I like it and always have.

            So there, Robert Linford. You have your garden party with eggrolls.

              Wedding ?, What wedding ?, I'm surprised no one mentioned it I've arranged to go and count the blades of grass in the lawn now, oh well should be more fun.

                Thankfully that's down to the Middleton family.

                Isn't it?

                  Talking about the Middleton family...

                  I have never thought about the Royal Family before, and naively thought that class barriers had come down to a large extent, but seeing the Middleton family having to be part of all the ceremony, and focus of all that attention, made me realise that it hadn't really changed much..

                  It must have been a terrible strain for them doing their 'parts' in front of all those people and cameras, and making small talk with the Royals..
                  ..and Carol can look forward to the papers running her looks down tomorrow

                  It must have been petrifying for James Middleton reading that lesson..and the whole day overwhelming.;

                    I don't know who's paying for it but it can't be me - I'm already booked to bail out Ireland and Greece. These are tough times, especially now William's beaten me by a whisker to the Duke of Cambridge job.

                        The second one. But I guess the real question is why you should pay for someone else's wedding

                          The tax the goverment has earned due to all the extra alcohol bought and consumed on Friday that otherwise wouldn't have been has probably paid for it many times over.
