Enough with the jubilee already.

Of course people can have a party any time. It's just that this jubilee has made millions of people want to have a party right now! Great.

And so say all some of us!

Agreed. ???????
I am wondering about whether all the non party people are putting the money they would have spent on bunting, party food etc into the very good causes mentioned.

It’s always nice to hear from volver wherever she is.

I agree *GSM ?. *

So do I. Needless yes Aveline.

I'm sure many of us donate to various causes but don't say.

I'm sure many of us donate to various causes but don't say. As do many of those who are contributing to the celebrations

There's three threads saying how the Jubilee is a dubious thing to celebrate and one or two threads saying how good it is.

So if all you want to do is have a nice celebration, it makes me wonder why so many people feel the need to come on one or more of the "three" and tell us what awful people we are. I can guess though.

Lucca, GSM, ChrissyOh, thank you

Because, like on the news, bad stories sell the papers. Good news gets buried under the all the bad press. Or maybe those against the jubilee are more desperate to post.

Seems I guessed right.

You guessed right? That those who didn’t want to celebrate are more desperate to post? Well I was right then.

No. You weren’t.

Yes she was!

Volver said there were more threads re not celebrating. I agreed that there were therefore more anti celebrations posters desperate to post.

I'm desperate to post along with others on the celebratory thread. The difference being that posters there don't spend the whole time arguing. I've found my niche and am happy with that. Each to their own. Sorted.

The "enjoying the jubilee" threads are full of people enjoying the jubilee. Nobody's popping on there to tell them how awful they are.

But on the many threads questioning the sense of a jubilee, there's lots of people telling posters what horrible people they are. And it's still going on.

So I was right when I guessed there's more nasty people who won't leave others alone just because they have a different opinion.

Yesterdays events and celebrations were so uplifting that I felt sorry for those who would rid us of this, that they don't feel it. How joyless it would be to just have a man in a suit as head of state, with no history and traditions behind him (or her, of course). I think the great majority of us enjoyed yesterday.

Agree.

I suppose there will be moaning on a thread titled "Enough with..."

I would suggest the "Happy" thread is obviously the other one, Nadateturbe

I agree with Volver too. I did watch some of the Trooping of the colour and the beacon lighting but turned off the commentary as the dribbling sycophancy was constant. The BBC dragged out so many has beens to comment that I was amazed, didn’t realise that most of them were still alive and that plastic surgery was so prevalent. What on earth was Lulu doing there? Talk about padding out a show.

I was very joyous yesterday, didnt watch any of the jubilee. Are people unable to understand that people think differently to them. I feel sorry for those people.

I thoroughly yesterday, thank you, and today is shaping up even better. I expect tomorrow and Sunday to be positively fabulous.

The jubilee is completely irrelevant to my pleasure.

Couldn’t agree more Zonne

It irritates me that HM refuses to use a wheelchair to attend the church service today which is all about her. What message does that send to wheelchair users everywhere?
