Some woman along the road has put a flyer through the door today. Potted version being "does anyone mind if we have a street party on "our" street on the 29th aka Royal wedding day". Yes actually I blinking do mind. Now I'm a bloke, quite an old one too. I should just shove a return note through her door telling her that I don't want a ruddy party and that while I have nothing against the Royal Family, I really couldn't care less about their weddings and certainly don't want my access to my property compromised by a bunch of people who think it's still the 1950s. I should stand up and be counted. Problem is my wife won't let me... Think I'll get some manure delivered on the 28th... Bah ! :-( Reply to this message | Report message

Come on Humph. Royal family never interested me, neither for or against them. Maybe slightly for since it's a tourist attraction but that's about the extent of my interest. Then Prince Willie came along, and I thought, he seems a nice chap, liked his mum too. That's about the end of that. Then Kate came along... Phwoar! I'll be watching from a beer garden somewhere, hoping and praying for a boob slip or something :-) Street party? Rock on! :-) Reply to this message | Report message

Bad day was it? Not a fan of royalty but a street party actually sounds quite nice and if someone is prepared to organise it good for them. Relax have a beer and and a corned beef sandwich and pretend it's 1955. You might even enjoy it. Reply to this message | Report message

"get drunk, show yourself up, insult the neigbours, make a pass at someones wife" That's the motto on my coat of arms. Every now and again on a Summer evening, a couple of the blokes on our street will start drinking on the front, wind the car windows down and put the stereo on. Within a couple of hours there'll be 50-odd people standing around chatting and drinking and it will go on till the early hours. Fantastic fun, who cares what the reason is???

Bah humbug. Same here. leaflet through the door, nicely printed too. They've even got permission to close the road on the day. I hope one of the organisers has a heart attack and the tables and chairs in the road prevent the ambulance getting to them, and they die. That'll teach them. Okay, I'm kidding, but I really really hate this toady to a royal, "gawd bless you sir for visiting your unworthy and 'umble subjects, may gawd bless all who sail in her". Arrrgghh. Mind you, there must be some form of anti-celebration. The problem is that I don't dislike them personally, and I wish them well. I just don't like the fawning, and obsequiousness, and I don't see why we should be bothered. Last edited by: VxFan on Tue 5 Apr 11 at 00:58 Reply to this message | Report message

The street where my parents live has a street party every year. Every year I got asked to go, every year it turned out I had work on - at the local cinema, making my way through a big bag of maltesers watching anything that gets me away from chummy neighbours who wouldnt urinate on you if you were on fire for the rest of the year. The wife has talked me into watching the wedding on TV though, or rather badgered me until I submit. I quite like a wedding an the bride is a bit of high class totty atleast, less like a posh horse than the majority. Of course to really pull the viewers in, we need Prince Chuck to arm wrestle Wills for the throne, now that I wanna see :-) Reply to this message | Report message

I don't have a problem with the wedding or who's starring in it. I do have a problem with being sociable with this lot round here though. Can't imagine the conversation extending much beyond the privations of company car tax, choice of schools, conservatory sizes / tiling options and the availability of local jobs in IT...

There was one further down the road for the minellium but it didn't involve us proles at the rough end. It did mean we could stagger out at midnight and watch their fireworks without being run over. We just had a damn good foodfest and pizz up. I quite like the young couple, I certainly wouldn't climb over her to get to Humph. It'll be another day off work...oh no, I don't work.

>> >>not their best song but what brilliant video/sound quality at this rehersal from 1971...<< >> >> Amazing stuff! ... the neck of that Fenlander Stratocaster is well worn :) >> Ritchie used to scallop the neck between the frets, so even when nearly new his Starts looked old. I saw an interview with him (think it's on Youtube somewhere); he'd spent three days scalloping the neck on a Strat, then gave it to his guitar roadie to take to a guitar shop to have the frets sorted out. The guitar shop not only files down the frets, they also re-profile the neck to remove the 'worn' parts. Ritchie is not best pleased. I'd like to have been a fly on the wall when his guitar roadie broke the news to him. Last edited by: spamcan61 on Tue 5 Apr 11 at 11:43 Reply to this message | Report message
