Who's getting married in the morning?

Being quintessentially English and enjoying all the traditions of tea, Eastenders and fish & chips does NOT mean we are all looking forward to Kate and Wills getting hitched. With proceedings being rammed down the throats of pretty much every citizen be it through yet another annoying BBC1 advert or seeing Union Jack displays and cushions with the image of the trolls emblazoned on...it seems one won't be free til the bank holiday's over.

I don't give a toss about a wedding funded by taxpayers' money, taking away from those who don't care and also bringing the whole country to a halt for one day. Pretty selfish if you ask me. I'm just waiting for someone to announce the 29th April a nationally renowned holiday it's been THAT hyped thus far.

It's even more tragic that people are actually camping outside Bucks Palace and on the freezing streets of London to catch a glimpse of...oh yes, royals in their cars and carriages. You're not even going to be allowed within an inch of the actual ceremony, why put yourself through a potential bout of pneumonia, WITH the prospect of overnight rain to add.


In light of today's imminent wedding proceedings this image had to be posted to sum up my thoughts. Being a student at Staffordshire University home of the country's, and some of the world's finest pottery (*snore*) I couldn't help but remember this story written by a fellow talented journo in my class about anti-wedding mugs.


I will probably crawl out of my pit for a millisecond, I must confess, to see the dress and discover what designer's going to walk around with a stick up their arse for the rest of time and their career.

Cheerio chums.
