Thanks, William and Catherine, for the holiday, which I intend to take full advantage of! I enjoy the ceremony and the faces and the clothes and the horses of these occasions. A deep conservative streak, I guess, but I defy anyone not to appreciate the beautiful Abbey, the "costumes" of all concerned, and the incredibly beautiful and appropriate wedding dress from the Alexander McQueen label. With the greatest respect I thought Catherine looked more regal in this dress than almost anyone else there. She certainly looked, in the nicest possible way, as though she had stepped out of the Middle Ages.
