How to be a Republican on the 6th May

I take on board that some people like to see folk dressed up as medieval rulers and to have jewelled hats put on their heads in a made up ceremony. I take on board that the toffs are trying to pretend that refugees and whatever have a central place in British society, especially if they can sing. I understand that encouraging people to volunteer and organising concerts is just what some people think Heads of State should be doing and don't see the irony of spending obscene amounts of money on a party for KC and his family when the country is in deep trouble.

But I don't think any of those things. Maybe you don't either.

How are you avoiding the coronation weekend?

We have booked to fly to Portugal on 3rd May. So it will by-pass us.

I’ll be in Italy . They have their Liberation Day at the end of April and it is usually very good with bands and free food and wine in the village.

What’s wrong with Sicily?

Nothing, I love it, but my first idea was Scotland as a coronation free zone.

We'll ignore it and carry on as usual.

But if you had an invite, would you go?

KC3 is wearing his Admiral uniform if anyone cares. The crown is not in the Tower of London but is being altered!

Hope you are all getting to your holiday escape destinations by horse and cart!
