#16  Mrs. Ret. Stayed up all night to watch (0250 on the west coast). Me, i went for the highlight reel and three things stuck out:
1) No Megan look at me,
2) No Harry whining,
3) that gold carriage workmanship is incredible. As to ride quality, reports that axles are hard mounted to frame, well take it slow, would ya, Jeeves?

#13  I"m sorry, but I loved it. No one, but no one, does all the pomp and ceremony better than the Brits. And they've been at it for centuries.

#11  Yes Charles, and you are the center of it.

#10  I agree that it was boring. It was also a celebration of a guy that I don’t like. Perhaps Charles and I are also in agreement on that account.

#9  His garb in #7 is better than the main post. It has a Peter O'Toole quality to it.

#8  At least he didn't look at his watch.

Someone mentioned that they saw him glance at his left wrist a few times, which of course was 'watchless' during the ceremony.

He's wearing one in most every other photo I've seen of him.

He is apparently also a watch collector of some note.

#7  Was there some sort of parallel muzzie tribal abdication, or are duel titles permissible ?

Costumebaffoonery? Should I hyphenate that ?

#5  If your wife was the kind of woman who watched the whole thing of this, you have more problems than you know.

#4  And pretty much that's all he's qualified for.

#3  He probably would have been more patient were he forty years younger. He’s been ready to march down that aisle for most of his life.

#1  He’s right, you know.
