MegaSack DRAW - This year's winner is user - rgwb
We will be in touch
Any one sad enough to stay in and watch...........oh and whos working, and who is having a day off with pay
Well why else do we have the day off...
Is anyone brave enough to admit they're going to That London for That Wedding?
Working..
Afan - skyline most likely
going to Londinium to watch the wedding, I've got a new hat and everyfink
Working, just like any other normal Friday.
I've just seen that a TV movie has already been made about the happy couple! 😯
going to bath area for the weekend, have a great time if anyone is going.
Going to that London to work on that there wedding I am.
-working.
-trying to calculate how much the public holiday has cost our nhs trust (in real money, extra day's leave for everyone and non-delivery of non-urgent services) in these times of great economic austerity. Paper napkin calculation so far is about half a million for a small-to medium primary care trust. God knows what it would be for a large acute/general hospital.
I'm not going to go up to London, but I'll watch it on telly, and we've found a street party to go to. 😀
Lordy I sound miserable there ^ don't I? Sorry, I promise to post about bluebells and drifty corners for the rest of the week.
Early bike ride followed by a trip to the tip and Tesco then building a Darth Vader scarecrow for the village festival,
i will be off work from my acute hospital employer and either riding locally or at the seaside 🙂
the roads will be packed with people taking advantage of the fact that the roads will be empty
the hills will be packed with people taking advantage of the fact that the hills will be empty
the beaches will be packed with people taking advantage of the fact that the beaches will be empty
London will be packed with journalists, and a few royals
I'll be enjoying yet another day with no chance of earning a crust. The joys of self-employment. I'll probably have a beer and a bikeride, not neccessarily in that order
Breakfast with the monks at SSEC 2011 for me on that very morning,all the other SS freaks.......... and The Yarkshire Crew.
Cycling with mates to a pub for lunch, then another pub, then another, until closing time, then cycle home.
I'm off to hAmsterdam on a stag do - biggest ****ing cliche ever 🙁
I am however hoping to sample some drugs for the first time in years, and perhaps indulge some mildly submissive fantasies with shemales...though, it's not so long since the last time.
I shall be wildcamping in the VW with my family in the deepest, darkest, incomunicado-est part of mid wales.
Mega Cannock ride, all day, avoiding all trace of media.
either be in Cannock or revising I expect!
think watching some coverage of the wedding is going to be unavoidable though!
Paid leave, mtb at Woburn.
going to arran for the weekend ..... do i take tractor bike 😀
dd - for a truly tacky horrible experience I can highly recommend watching a show at the Casa Rosa while off your nuts. Just dont volunteer to get up on stage if she's brandishing a dildo mounted on a headband,.,..
Riding in the North Lakes and cooking curries for supper.
The TV will be off.
Wandering round the highlands somewhere with a bivvy bag and bivvy kit for 3 days.
Horse racing, got a big bunch of free tickets.
Oh?
Tell me more Stoner 😆
Probably kicking in the back seat, but haven't made my mind up yet.
Mendips. Can't wait.
I'll be outside the gates of Bucking Palace waiting for the happy couple to wavy at us.
Events like this don't happen very often you know.
Of course the day will be tinged with sadness, with the realisation that the Queen's Mum (God rest her soul) won't be there to witness the majestic occasion 😐
Emz, I think the experience is enhanced if youre not long-sighted....
Standing to attention in front of the telly of course.
Hunting down RealMan for posting those damn Rebecca Black videos!
Road ride................. 😯
I'm retired so no day off!
Off racing in Belgium at SSEC. Equal 4th is a realistic target for me.
I'll be watching with yunki Jr.. unless there's something really compelling on cbeebies..
then orf out for some hardcore acid breakbeat in the evening
Afan with a bunch of mates
Artist that's a beautiful spot! where's the Gower?
I'll be road riding, wearing lovely Union Jack overshoes, on the road, on a roadbike.
a 12 hour ****athon
a 12 hour ****athon
Thinking of Kate (or retro-style, Di), I hope!
Me: working, no holiday here. Still, Monday's a holiday so I get a long weekend.
Artist that's a beautiful spot! where's the Gower?
I believe it's in google's top 5 search results 🙂
Lake District bike ride, traffic permitting anyway. Getting up there Thursday evening and camping.
Cycling from Bradford-on-Avon back to Bristol via several pubs 😈
Ill be out riding in The Lakes..
On the flip side, Old Charlie boy must be happy his only son is getting married...
Clay-pigeon shooting, but with ceremonial royal wedding plates.
That or riding.
No real plans, finish off some DIY, painting, service the bikes for the weekend. I'm not going to actively avoid things royal or wedding but equally I won't go out of my way to see it 0 I'm just not bothered. My GF is off on my sister's hen do so I have 3 days of riding planned. A fourth may well kill me.
In the morning, I will awake in either a bothy or a tent depending on Thursday's weather, then walk through the mountains, out of mobile and TV reception, ensuring my complete avoidance of the event. Can't wait!
SSEC
Shall decide the day before, or rather the weather will!
Just can't get into That Wedding. Normally I enjoy all the pomp but this leaves me cold. I miss Diana. 🙁
emsz, I reckon that's Three Cliffs Bay. I've camped on that very site. The Gower is a peninsula near Swansea. "Area of outstanding natural beauty" is an understatement. TCB is one of countless stunning spots.
For Di and Charlies wedding me Owd Fella took me walking over Crinkle Craggs with me mum. Lost me mum this year, so I'll take me Dad over Crinkles for old times sake.
I shall be working in a large acute hospital trust - unless it goes properly bankrupt as julian suggests
I'll be mostly riding peachy singletrack around Pitlochry.
Up on Skye for a week... Idrigil or Quirang, hopefully Slig to Camasunary Thursday... Post Wedding brekkie on Harris if weather permits. Great week of riding planned..

DD is correct emsz - it's Three Cliffs Bay, Penmaen, South wales. Not been before, but heard it's fantastic and the pics would tend to back that up - Google it and there are loads similar. It would be just our luck that this fantastic weather wont be replicated though.
I've posted it before, but we'll be off here early June too - Castlerigg Hall, Keswick - overlooking Derwent Water.
hoping that the father in law does the bbq that he was talking about, which I will ride to in order to miss the hours of utter balls that will be talked on the telly. thankfully the nephew tom who is 4 will not want to sit inside so we'll go and play bikes in the garden.
Standing to attention in front of the telly of course.
Look, I know that Kate's a hottie, but.....
8)
Volunteered to work.
Hopefully grading to Wales for the weekend to see the family and fix my sisters car. The mrs watched some Prince William / Di program last night. Not a chance am I watching anything on Friday. Bit worried as my mrs has been given union jack bunting-not too happy about that!
I'm quite surprised by the almost unanimous lack of interest..
Working all weekend first one since my holidays and the last before I'm on holiday.
I'm quite surprised by the almost unanimous lack of interest..
I am surprised at your surprise..Its not just this forum. At work, at home - everyone I know couldnt give a flying **** about the whole stupid affair
Club bike pub crawl,.............
Singlespeeding in Belgium!!!! Beer and cheese anyone?
Wife is watching the tv from the start 08:00 I have been warned no mtb films all day unless in another room on my laptop.
I would love to have been going on my bike but a broken collar bone is holding up play.
I hope you enjoy your rides and I will think of you as I drink real ale at my local CAMRA award winning pub.
We're off to Dalbeattie for a Royal Wedding Commemorative Ride.
SO will be glued to the tv, I'll be bike building and fiddling to my hearts content 🙂
On Saturday I too hope to get 4th place at SSEC in Belgium. So Friday I will mainly be travelling, attending the night ride and ale, probably in that order....
Standing on a big hill looking out for Zulus. Apparently we'll be surrounded.
I had planned a lap of Penmachno, but I've spent the last two days either in bed sweating or on the loo, so I think it's unlikely to happen unless I have an overnight recovery 🙁
Another for SSEC 2011. Have cheese,bike and tent. Just need to resist the urge to nibble at the cheese beforehand.
Mrs knows we are packing next to nothing so I can squeeze in the usual serious amounts of beer for the return journey.
