    Have you seen the weather forecast for the next 10 days?

    Sky News has this headline--- Jubilee Weather: Long To Rain Over Us?


    It's drizzling at the Surrey/SWLondon border.
    Also thought I heard thunder. If it's raining,take it easy, GDB.

    Just had to go and pick up a hire suit for the wedding I'm going to next weekend from regents st. Ugh. It was horribly busy and too hot. The suit fits though which is a bonus.

    The bride wants to vet my best man speech. There's nothing bad in there but I don't think this is a reasonable request, I can see an argument coming...

    I'm a bit late on this chewy. Have had a lovely evening of watching the Artist, followed by discussing your dilemma. We both decided it is out of order.

    Suggests either:
    a) You aren't suitable best man material
    b) She doesn't like you and will do all she can to stop you two seeing each other after the big day, or
    c) She's a bridezilla control freak.

    Hope we're wrong and its none of the above. Let us know how you get on. Liked missk's suggestion re giving her a fake speech.

    So the Queen was in Epsom today, relatively close to us.

    She has my sympathy. Her job involves her every step and word being controlled, for her whole life.

    And the job owns any kids she has virtually as soon as they're born.
    Monarchs need a union to look after their interests if you're asking me (which nobody ever does).

    I once wondered if monarchs ever went on strike and found out that the King of Belgium stood down for a day to let some abortion legislation be passed.

    Anyway, good luck to her. BTW, like michaels I'm a citizen, not her subject but I wouldn't go on about it if I met her in the street.

    AAAAAH! We’re going to Junior New Wave (again) :eek:

    This is on top of 6 contracts for Reality Star (a new competition in Spain!). We’ve also just bought 60% of a large Armenian community website.

    I’m in for a busy summer!

    Let me know what you think to this guys :).
