Not particularly. I do however think it'd important for our country. Think of all the postives it brings with Tourism from people wanting to be in London and wanting to visit the country. The Yanks would love a Monarchy eh.

In a way I wish I was into it, but I really ain't that bothered.

Will be having a few bevvies to celebrate anyhow!

Lets Hope Wills isn't too tired to wind one into Kate tomorrow night.

Looking forward to the "Royal sex tapes."

I love the whole army and traditional attire in red coats from its generals to the men marching so it would be cool just watching the parade. Other than that..... send links of royal sex tape when it becomes available!

Don't really care at all. I'm not against the royals as a whole, I think they are good for our country but I really couldn't care about the wedding at all.

Nobody gives a fuck. Which reflects very well on out country and its progress away from all that shit. Whereas the Americans still go nuts fir this sort of charade.

To be fair, although I usually find myself on the left, politically, when considering any kind of protest, I hope there isn't any trouble tomorrow, because it's just not appropriate. Want to protest? Protest about Cameron and Osbourne - the Laurel & Hardy of British politics - screwing up our flatlining Economy. I'm no Royalist, but the best way we can react to this wedding is to ignore it, but be thankful for thd extra Bank Holiday.

Sad state our country is in if the poll here is anything to go by.

Or is it all bravado/macho shit.

I don't think it's a sad state. I really don't care about the Royals at all. As has been said - good for tourism and thats all imo.

I don't really care either. But I am going to try make an effort. One day I may have kids who will come home from school and ask about it.

I want to be able to discuss it with them rather than not show any interest in it what so ever.

As a parent to kids who are interested in it - being someone who isn't doesn't stop me from talking to them about it or sharing in their excitement - they will be watching it tomorrow. Luckily - I'll be in bed.

Pretty much every poll on every forum I've seen regarding the wedding is the same....on the whole, the majority don't really care.
