sorry, but thoroughly fed up with this already.

certainly shan't bother watching, basically another drain on national resources, they'll need housing, feeding, protecting, paying .........

but then, I'm just a miserable old git

Wouldn't one of the Calvert binliner wagons be a better fit?

I look at it this way, living in Windsor, I know that this royal wedding has dramatically spun up the tourist trade and will probably generate gainful employment for the best part of twenty thousand people, by the time you include trickle down for the service and support industries around here for the next five years.  From an economic standpoint it's not to be sniffed at, from a personal point of view i'm glad when 5pm arrives each day and all the tourists and tourist buses go home.

That was for Charles's second wedding.

I'm very much looking forward to the royal wedding day, but only because I'll be at the Severn Valley diesel gala 😁

For the republicans amongst us, I can still offer you an ESNG anniversary gunpowder van - maybe sponsored by G. Fawkes.....

I'm beginning to regret posting this!

Megan asked Harry "Are you entitled to bear arms ?"

Harry replied "Bare arms, bare legs, anything you like....!"
