Don’t be a royal party pooper

by Debbie

More than a quarter of the world's population are expected to be watching the event, 8,000 journalists have descended on London, millions of Americans are expected to set their alarm for  4am and our economy is set to receive a huge boost with retailers alone looking to generate an extra £480 million.

I am quoting these facts to all of those royal wedding party poopers out there. I don’t care if you don’t like the royal family, I don’t care if you think it’s a waste of money and I don’t care if you are going out of your way to avoid it.

There are very few occasions these days when I feel proud to be British (or English or European or whatever it is we are supposed to be) but I know that on Friday I will be settling down on the couch with my brew and my bacon butty and will be glued to the set for several hours.

I will probably cry (but I cry at adverts so that’s not a big deal) and as I join my family and friends for our post wedding garden party complete with bunting, cucumber sandwiches and champagne I will be toasting Wills & Kate and thanking them not just for an extra day off but for showing brand GB in its best possible light.

If any other event or brand can take on what will be the biggest TV audience in the history of the world then I will eat my union flag t-shirt. But until then – Rule Britannia!
