I'm not getting married so why do I have them?
This time it's for Prince William and Kate Middleton. Silly right?
- I don't know them,
- I'm not living in England, so why should it interest me?
The entire choir was having a party to celebrate, it was a day off work for the adults and an excuse to get silly for the kids. ....However...I was far too cool to care! You remember 13? What an awful, self absorbed lot we are at that age.
So Nicola Buckley, (who was also incredibly cool) and I decided we'd rather bunk off and go round the shops instead!
So as the silliness began, we trotted downtown to be cool and be seen.
Of course, there was no-one to see us....all the shops were shut....no cars on the streets...not another soul to be seen anywhere. Wells was deserted
But we couldn't go back and admit we'd been wrong - not that anyone would have noticed we'd been gone.
So we trolled around town being bored and angsty, and missed out on a brilliant party, by all accounts.
Fast forward 30 years!...I get another shot at it! YAY.
I know for a fact I'm not too cool (just ask my kids), and I know I'm not missing out on the party this time, no matter how silly and irrelevant people think this wedding is.
I'm getting up early, dressing up, wearing a hat, driving to an English Pub (well, as English as it gets in Cleveland ohio), sipping champagne, or something equally yummy and enjoying the wedding.
Second times a charm, right?
Cheers!
