I cannot believe such an insignificant event has spawned so much heated debate.[zzz]
Lets all try and focus on whats important, like getting a Tesco Value valentines card before they sell out.

the whole country has royal connections.. and our royals from the past had most of the buildings that the tourists come to see built..

Exactly!!!![clap][clap][clap][clap]
Why is it that people living on social security (aka our taxes) is classed as 'significant' debate yet you call this royal saga 'insignificant'. Both are kept from my taxes, and i find nothing insignificant about this.
The Royal Family cost each person in the UK 60p in 2004 when you consider how many tourists we get on the back of them thats quite good value for money[msnwink]
60p from millions of people. How is it value for money? I don't even get my 60p worth do i? I'd rather buy three loaves of tesco value bread for that.
Well do you think everyone in America would pay a $ towards Disney considering how much tourism they get off the back of that? Dont think so. It's the principle. Don't look at the 60p look at the whole picture, the MILLIONS per year going into one awful family with alley cat morals
Well it didnt rate more than two minutes on US news wheras when Diana was alive British royalty used to be all over US TV. Nothing was said on the pros and cons, though it was mentioned that it was weird timing with the UK elections coming up. Fact is, since Iraq, Tony Blair is a lot more newsworthy than Prince Charles.

The first part of your post I agree with, the second not so sure about, no telling Ray about these cheap cards.[msnwink]
