My Royal Wedding: it may happen tomorrow

  • Watching the Wedding of the Century with my amazing sister, may her migraines go fuck themselves, my mobile phone went off just as Wills and Kate were starting to say their vows. It was the creche, saying that Charlie had a bit of a sore throat. I followed the rest of the service on the car radio. Which is notoriously good at conveying the cheeky smiles of bridegrooms and the demure batting of brides' eyelashes. And all I could think was "Must get baby now."
  • Tonight, watching the highlights on the BBC, Charlie started crying and needed me upstairs at the exact same point in the service. I have given up on watching it for today. I'm giving it one more go tomorrow (Jack has demanded to see the recorded highlights because he was at school during the wedding) but if it goes wrong again then I will just have to accept it's not to be.
  • I was back for the kisses!

  1. I had to record the important bits, because I had to go pick up M from school at 11:55! Normally Oma was meant to, but damn, of all days, I had to go. I considered leaving her in school all day, but she didn't have any lunch with her. So we watched it all an hour later, and M compared princess dresses with me. Her favourite was the 'big yellow one' that the bishop wore!
    Hope Charlie is OK. x

  2. What was the big deal with the two kisses? I couldn't believe how crazy everyone else was going about it. I mean it was as if they were having sex in front of everyone. I kissed Josh at least 100 times on our wedding day.
