Royal Wedding

#1 Post by Mattcortes »

How comes the Royal cars arent all registered or have tax? Do the DVLA know about this? Hope it doesn't spoil the big day with them getting clamped what with all them police about.

Seriously congrats to them nice to see that us Brits can do something right and I did like the 1950's Rolls. Very attractive.

I saw bits of it around lunchtime (May have been the news bulletin), when the Lancaster, Spitfire and Hurricane flew past (That Lanc has flown over our shop). That was nice to see. I understand that William borrowed his father's DB 5 (6?) at some point and I understand that some older Rolls Royces were used.

I must say, I'm not really into all the hype but it crossed my mind that William must have pondered that it would have been nice if his mother could have been there. It also crossed my mind that when Charles and Diana were married, who would have fortold how that ended up :?:
