Default Happy Royal Wedding Day!

Loved the royal wedding; Meghan and Harry (now the Duke and Duchess of Sussex) looked so happy. Thank you Presiding Bishop Michael Curry for your inspirational sermon. Great music. Princess Diana must be smiling down from Heaven today.

Princess Eugenie (daughter of Prince Andrew & Sarah Ferguson) will marry Jack Brooksbank on October 12 at St. George's Chapel at Windsor Castle (same place as today's wedding). So you can wear your hat to that wedding. LOL.

I wonder if it is recorded online? I heard also that the sermon was quite good. I watched some of it on many different media Facebook feeds. I found this off of Facebook-- “The Power of Love”— Bishop Michael Curry's sermon at the wedding of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle | The Archbishop Of Canterbury

And what is it with all the hats? Is there a law about hats in UK weddings or just tradition like with the Kentucky Derby?

They actually toned down the hats from last time.

Preachers in the U.S. preach like that all the time, for hours on end, I guess it's new to the UK?

I feeeeeeellllllllaaaaaa ttttthhhhhheeeeeeee LLLLLLLLLLLLAAAAAAAAAAAAWWWWWWWWWDDDDDD.

Like Eddie Murphy when he is playing the one guy in "Coming to America."

I watch the entire thing to support my wife. I figure if she can watch Gas Monkey Garage and Swamp People I can watch one quick Wedding. Oh, my Lord, I thought it would never end. But I must admit it wasn't as bad as I thought it was. The Brit's are in shock. That's all I'm gonna say. They had the same look as some people in the United States during the halftime of certain Superbowls.

Over here in France, I watched the wedding at a girls-only party. There were three Brits, three French, and three Americans. One of the Brits told me that Camilla has been so very good to those boys, and they both love her. The Brits also said the marriage between Charles and Diana was simply to provide heirs to the throne. I wonder if she realized it. I didn't ask. It's a shame the way Diana was treated.

I did think the hats were toned down from Kate & Will's wedding.

British doggy Oscar (actually probably French, rescued from the middle of a freeway in SW France) sporting pearls and a British bow.

I am watching it now. Bishop Curry's style reminds me of this scene. Blues Brothers Worship Service - YouTube
