I do think a lot of the hate is related to jealousy. I did have a snigger to myself at the for richer or poorer line

She looked rough yet he was bearded, equals racism.

I don't think 'she' looked rough, shes a nice looking woman. I think her dress was kind of ugly though and it looked like it was about 2 sizes too big. When you think of the money spent on it the designer could have least made sure it fit her. It swallowed her and the fabric looked too heavy. A similar dress in a lighter fabric that fit properly could have been stunning. The dress she wore wasn't.

She looked absolutely gorgeous in the dress she wore on the evening and it fit her.

It is permissable to dislike a dress without it being about racism or any other weird reason anyone wants to throw in.

Welcome back Livia, good to see you back.

. Started at 12 today, by 1pm I'd heard the word "halfcast" 7 times.

I drew the line at the comment that "The real problems will start in 9 months when she starts popping out wee monkies".

I don't think that kind of commentary will ever go away... people who say hurtful things and are viciously judgmental tend to be very miserable themselves. It comes from a feeling of entitlement and intense jealousy imo. If it were them on the pedestal, the rules would be very different.. very easy to take cheap shots that go below the belt when it's not them who have to face public scrutiny. Glad your bar kicked them out if they were creating an uncomfortable environment... but I think it's nothing out of the ordinary and it will always be there on some level.

They're not really wrong per say about the potential of the union causing problems (and increased controversy)... Isn't the royal family typically quite controlling? Though seems they've relaxed at least a little bit based on the wedding... ? I'm pleasantly surprised and I think it will send a positive message abroad and make people think a bit. I remember when they played movies about Diana and the royal family in the US, it was made a big point about how rigid they were about compliance.

I have even more respect for the bride and groom now. A lesser woman would've played the role they were given and stayed inside the lines, not risking offense... sounds like she is similar to Diana. Maybe it will eventually introduce additional tension to the royal dynamic, but for now I think just enjoy the moment and let them have their day... hopefully the media will leave them alone as well.

Say what we will about the state of affairs since ~2016... but we have seen a lot of shake up to the status quo. This is just yet another one of those earth quakes, but I think in the end, it will all be for the better... People are tired of the status quo and are bored with stuffy leadership that espouse the same belief and platitudes over and over again... all the while quietly standing by while the old infrastructure continues to crumble... change is meant to be.

Back on the wedding though; who was the woman that was speaking before the American bishop... And why did it sound like she was giving a eulogy at a funeral rather than speaking at a wedding?

she sounded bloody miserable.

Not you switching the racing off for the bloody wedding. I hope they riot.

we have two "general telly" screens, supposed to be for sport BUT to be fair... The studio was broadcasting wedding audio intermittently.

I mean... We were taking bets on the colour of the queen's hat, so I guess its a sporting event?

Not her hat.
I thought betting on will and Kate's baby names was a step too far.

I highly recommend the cinema on Monday - Wednesday morning during school term time kirk. They're empty and quiet, it's brilliant
