Its the year of the royal wedding
Another Royal wedding
Today saw another royal wedding, that of Zara Phillips and Mike Tindall. Slightly more a family occasion this time a little more low key that that of the Duke and Duckess of Cambridge.
Fashion verdict: In general a big fail.
The brides dress was plain and she looked lovely BUT it look ed liked thay had run out of material and added an extra bit to the bottom. And not sewn well either.
Katherine, Duchess of Cambridge even failed. Her hat was horrid!!!!
Beatrice and Eugenie continue to show us they have inherited their mothers style or lack of it.
The only royal that looked vaguely nice was the Duchess of Wessex. 8 points to you Sophie.
All in all an anti climax!!!

Facing Old age
As I get older I am finding myself suffering fools less. I had a discussion this past weekend about being nice to someone I dislike for no reason other than to be nice. Life is too short for me to spend time going to functions with people I dont particularly get on with, it just makes for a completely unpleasant evening. So rather than feeling like a fake I have decided I shall no longer go out of my way to be overly pleasant to people I cant abide. There is too much fakeness in this world already without me adding to it. I know I sound like a particularly unpleasant character but take me as you find me.
What I watched this week
So now that i dont have theatre every night to go to I have taken up watching even more television than I usually do. So here is my take on what I watched.
![]()
Okay I can only really bear to watch one episode of Shortland Street a week. The acting in general seems to be going form bad to worse. And its so intriguing how two characters who used to be gay are suddenly straight again. Its time the scriptwriters perhaps looked at some of the Uk soaps for inspiration.
What has happened to Ellen. She seems to have disappeared in favour of Masterchef Australia. You know what i dont give a shit about Masterchef Australia but it seems Television channels have an issue with talk shows. The View was taken off Vibe much to my disgust and now Ellen has disappeared. Thank God for Graham Norton i say.
Friday I watched Wedding House. Now this was of interest to me because of the industry I work in but really not a particularly enlightening programme.
I love Miranda on Friday nights. its a bit off the wall but bloody funny.
Loving The story of Costume Drama over on lifestyle. Fantastic insight into the great costume dramas from England. Well worth a look.
And this weeks highlight was definitely the wedding of Prince Albert of Monaco. Absolutely great coverage so much better than the brits did for Kate and William which was dissapointing as the british usually do these things so well.
Also highly recommend The Choir on UKTV. Outstanding doco.

A beautiful ceremony
here is a fifteen minute highlight package of the Monanco Royal wedding. Truly beautiful...Very musical...so much more romantic than the very staid wedding of Prince William. Even with it all being in french makes if kind of lovely. And I say poppycock to those who say she looks miserable. I would imagine it is a lot of pressure with all the worlds eyes on you. If you notice everyone is fanning themselves it must have been unbelievable hot. Watch and enjoy.

Guess what Ill be watching this weekend
Yes its time for another royal wedding and 'Ill be watching it. However I do wish these royals would marry at a rerasonable hour. 3am tomorrow morning for the civil ceremony and 3am on Sunday morning for the religious service.My best wishes go to his serene highness Prince Albert of Monaco and Charlene Whitstock on the celebrations this weekend.
There are huge rumours flying around that Charlene tried to run away and was found at the airport by armed palace police...a little over the top I think. So we shall see tomorrow if its all go.
