HORSEYS!

Intellectually, I am all over the Republican side of things, but when it boils down to it, most politicians end up being twats or numpties, and despite the many shortcomings of the Monarchy, they really do cavalry tremendously well! I find I have confidence in a head of government backed up by swords on horseback.

That was a very satisfying wedding. Everyone looked terrific, or terrifically silly (which is just as good), the bride was the prettiest, no one else was dressed exactly like the Queen, and all the readings and lessons were generous and appropriate.

And I bet Harry volunteered to be in the kids' coach so he could encourage vigorous waving and giggling.

Oh, I hope not, it would be in terrible disgrace after two days of naughtiness! They all had a beautiful long stride, especially those two flanking William and Catherine.

They did, and I really liked it! It's hard to be different at a wedding without being weird or naff, but I thought the trees managed it with elegance and a nice natural note that seemed to fit in with William and his father.

You mean that they gave Charles someone to talk to when he got bored?

It's as though you can read my mind!
