I was delighted by the appearance or Mr Bean. Too bad he did not arrive in his old Mini.

The whole thing was an absolute hoot! I was determined to not enjoy it at all, very glad to be wrong

What the rest of the world made of it all, goodness knows. lol

And given the way at least one of the royals is viewed overseas I'm sure ERII and Commander Bonds status is very well assured!

Ahem ...

So I just learned NBC cut out the 7/7 tribute. Unbelievable! Not only did they show the ceremony on tape delay (with a ton of commercials) but they also edited the thing. Will have to hunt for this on the internets now...

NBC does that kind of thing all of the time.
