weddings large and small....

So tomorrow's the big day. We've had wall to wall coverage of the build up, relentless speculation about 'the dress' and lots of footage of Charles and Di's wedding. Inevitably, the weather forecast's not great. But tomorrow it will finally be over. They're describing tonight as a 'royal sleepover' because so many people are camping along the route. There are 12,000 journalists from all over the world, ready to report every last detail to an estimated audience of 2 billion.

More importantly, we have our own family wedding on Sunday. As a result, I'm more focussed on what the weather will be like on Sunday, rather than tomorrow, and how our happy couple's event goes, rather than Wills and Kate's. Ours is a more modest affair. But the same level of emotional intensity has been invested. We are converging from our own four corners to celebrate and support. Family members have travelled from Australia to be here and gifts and good wishes have arrived from relatives in America. And we'll be making our way up and down the motorways and biways of Britain to be there for our own big event.

So, all our love to S+S. Have a wonderful day and a wonderful life. And we'll be there cheering....
