    Not interested in coronation but I sincerely hope that everyone gets home safely.
    In London. Keen but lazy.

    Interested enough to watch It on TV
    I hope it all goes well and doesn't rain. I shall watch it on TV and get a better view. Looking forward to it. The UK does pageantry so well.

    I’m limbering up to go on a GC crawl. 

    I’m hoping it’ll be quiet 🙏🏻

    Side note: our village Coronation Party has been cancelled due to lack of interest

    I gather that people will be shown to their seats in the Abbey up to two hours before the ceremony begins.

    Glad it’s not my bladder that is having to be put to the test.
    There will be a load of pish in the abbey right enough.  :)

    Do you ever wonder who decides what becomes tradition?
    Why do we go back to uniforms of certain eras - why then? Will uniforms and attire of today become tomorrow's tradition? Why do they wear wigs in court?
    I follow some events - Black Rod for example and that sets an era, but why do soldiers parade in old kit? Personally, I think it looks good but so would (IMO) a knight in full armour, or a couple of English, Roman legions.

    I see that Charles will put his hand on a book about a talking snake and a talking donkey to take a solemnly binding oath.
    You couldn't make it up.

    I hope he's not wearing a cloth of different fibres and I hope they've checked the women are not menstuating as "they're unclean and must be barred from crossing the threshold"
