You lucky thing. That's the way to do it o/
I went on a day trip to France with a large group of friends to escape the Charles and Di nuptuals.
I would do the same for this one but it is my little grandson's 2nd birthday that day. :tears:

How inconsiderate william and Kate chosing your grandson's birthday to get married. At least you will always know the date!

What worries me is that my daughter (who coincidentally, also lives right by the Olympic Stadium) lives in a very small place and any kids birthday parties have to take place in the outdoor space between her front door and the street. If she were to have a kids party that day we could be mistaken for people celebrating the wedding. :oops:

Central London will be crazy that week so I shall deliberately avoid London in the days leading up to the wedding.

Loads of tourists are coming for the celebrations. There will be road blocks and also a possible rail strike...oh what joy... :rolleyes:
