Topic: Charles & Camilla
I might as well come clean and say I'm pleased to hear about the forthcoming marriage of Charles and Camilla, mostly because they've had to wait so bloody long for people to take them seriously. Everybody in the world knew that Diana's selection as Charles' wife was deliberate, and it was her sorry luck to actually fall in love with him.

In 1981, I was in Britain and did not watch the wedding's telecast in it's entireity; I had slept in, slightly disappointing my royalist host. Night before I'd watched the fireworks on tv in a lively pub so I considered my work done.

Here are two different views on the Charles-Diana nuptials from the beautiful city of York, England:

Windsor, and especially the Guildhall area, where Charles and Camilla will become honest people on the 8th of April, will likely be rendered innacessible to residents, with parking and just moving about on foot, actually, becoming a nightmare. Try the #65 bus or leave town for the day.

Welcome!

It's only been in the last two days that I've decided to put a blog together. I have been reading Paul Wells' journal since he started it and now I'm jealous. No. That's not it. I enjoy Wells' blog very much. I think Chantal Hebert should have one, too, but I'm sure she's not a bit interested.

Give me a few hours to get organised and I'll post comments about current events, politics of all sorts, books, film, and social behaviour.

Here's what I'll tell you about me for the time being.

I live with my cat companion, my familiar, in Vancouver, BC.

The rest you'll have to work out for yourselves.
