Eugenie’ wedding

One of my sons lives close to Windsor, and my Australian brother-in- law is visiting him there today. Unfortunately it is bucketing with rain and Windsor won’t look at its best. Pity.

A fab place to be Phoenix Windsor Gt Park is lovely. My great uncle Walter was some kind of groundsman there post war & into 50s. I remember visiting. He & Aunt Emily had a cottage somewhere in the park.

A long time ago, I lived in Windsor Castle, King George IV Lodge, Lancaster Tower. (Lovely view down the Long Walk, irritating noise as the guards stomped about under the dining room window)

Some of the Royal Family, and their boyfriends/girlfriends had nick name/code names, and I can confirm that Mark Phillips was known as "Foggy"

I didn't think they "lived together" although they live in the same, rather large, house.
Convenience?

I thought Andrew seemed quite frosty towards Fergie. They barely made eye contact. Maybe they were wary of Philip and the Queen sitting so close to them.

the rest of “them” off .

Well for what it’s worth ( nothing) I like Fergie and I hope her and Airmiles live happily ever after ( even if it’s just to p*ss the rest of the off )

Jack has a certain resemblance in character and looks to Mark Phillips (commonly referred to as Foggy!). I think he's probably just a thoroughly good egg and will make a jolly splendid husband for Youjaney.

Apparently his grandma told the press he was a charming boy, but not very intelligent. Gran!!!

Didn't see much of it but thought the dress was lovely and the rather medieval design of the tiara suited it beautifully. The groom seemed very sweet, with the glasses on? glasses off dilemma.

I did chuckle when Fergie had to beat a hasty retreat from Robbie Williams's daughter's questions.

'Are you the Queen?'

'No!'

'Are you a princess?'

'Yes!'

Er….No you're not, Fergie but I don't blame you for ducking out of explaining that one.

'Use yer knee' is how I've always pronounced it.

Do you think that the Queen reads Gransnet?

Pronounced Youjeny apparently.

I’ve always pronounced it You-Janey. I’m glad to know how it should really be pronounced.

Harry married a tv actress

I always pronounced it You-Genie - as I'd always thought that Empress Eugenie's name was pronounced like that.

Yes...it is but in my view, it's an entirely truthful comment.
Not a truthful comment but an *opinion& (and a rather nasty one at that).

I think he's rather nice-looking - and what on earth is wrong with a royal princess marrying someone with a fairly ordinary job?
At least she hasn't been forced into marrying someone whom she didn't love.

I didn't know until yesterday that her name is pronounced YOO-jenny! How odd.

The family did pay for the wedding

of course it is Bubbel but as her father apparently is worth 60 million + maybe HE should have footed the bill for HIS family wedding.You know just like the rest of us do .

Thanks for the link Marydoll most of those pics aren't in the printer Daily Mirror or on the FB pages I've seen from W.W. sites.
I didn't like Nicola's outfit but admire her for not conforming.

I watched the wedding on television and it was a beautiful, dignified event. I think that all of the negative comments I have read on Gransnet are really out of order. If the Queen wishes for her granddaughter to be married in a certain way it is her prerogative.

If you follow the link I posted, you will see them, Sparklefizz. There is one with the Duchess of York and the parents of the groom.

Ninathenana ^Why have I not found photos anywhere of Nicola and George Brooksbank the groom's parents confused
I was curious to see the MoG outfit^

Nicola B looked much better than Sarah Ferguson in my opinion. There are photos online if you look.

Savannah Phillips seems to be quite a character. I can see a resemblance to her grandmother Princess Anne in several ways. Her relationship with George is lovely to see.
