So Prince William and Kate Middleton are finally tying the knot. The US media can't get enough of it. We are so fickle. We flit from Lindsay Lohan, to Mel Gibson, to Paris Hilton. Finally we have two "genuine articles" to hear about daily from now on. Their wedding plans, the wedding itself, the gown, the party, how much it cost, who paid for it, etc., etc. Actually I love it. The man who will be King (but when?) and his gorgeous commoner fiance. What a story. It's a real fairy tale. But so were Princess Diana and Prince Charles. Fairy tales often have sad endings, but this one sounds promising. I will be hanging on every word, and watching all the goings-on.
What about you in GB? What's the story there? Did she live anywhere near you? Is that all you hear and see on television? Or are the Brits actually broadcasting news? We seem to have abandoned news in favor of sensationalism.

It's too much for me.:(
When things like this are announced here, I go 'digging' below the surface to see what 'bad news' they are trying to bury.
Hope you are making a speedy recovery?
All the best.....Bernard.
Bernard...we're doomed!
I am recovering splendidly. Faster than most. It's hard work, but it will be worth it.
Thanks for your good wishes.
