I have a couple of Queries re- the Royal Wedding.. - Why isn't Sarah Ferguson being invited to the wedding?
- If they can invite David Beckham and 'Posh' why hasn't SIR Alex Ferguson been invited?
Kates Mum and Dad have invited Tim Henman's parents, no doubt very nice people, but I can't help but think priorities are awry somewhere.

She has the honorary title of Duchess of York, but she's an ex royal and slightly eccentric too, and while that's basically most royals past or present, it's no surprise to me she's not invited.
Dour old Scottish pensioner or famous couple nearer their age - no contest really
And why not the Henmans, they seem terribly nice people and awfully well spoken. It's not as if they've invited Flo and Bob from a council estate who'll bring a toaster as a wedding present

I have a lot of respect for David Beckham as an ambassador for the sport and as a role model for today's youth, but our most succesful Football Manager who has been knighted for his 'services' to the game has been by-passed.
Likewise, I have a lot of respect for Tim Henman and his expertise in his sport and his Mother's unflinching support and loyalty, but if it is a question of being invited to such a prestigeous occasion as a Royal Wedding because one is "Well spoken" (and presumably well heeled), then maybe that says it all, they will bring a gold plated toaster.
I am not sure if Sarah Ferguson's two Daughters will be at the wedding with their Father, but if so, how on earth are they going to feel without their Mother?

It's about being seen with the right people....hence the Beckham's. As for Sarah, maybe the recent scandal with her trying to sell time with her ex might have had something to do with her not making the list.
And of course the fact that they hate her for falling from the fold and touting herself about to make money rather than slip quietly into the background and bankruptcy?
Gold toasters, rubbish! Got one here and it doesn't toast the bread evenly, I have to ask James, my man servant, to finish it off on the fire in the Great Hall.

MM - thank you so much for your reply, I had completely forgotten about SF trying to sell time with her Ex and bringing the Royals into disrespute. I guess she has asked for all she has (hasn't) got in this case. Mind you she could 'butter my toast' anytime she liked if the played her cards right. ;D

Suck her toes and the old slapper might even put jam on it as well Buzzy. Athough I think it would take more than jam to take the taste away.

I see Her Majesty has had a second poke at Phony Tony and his buddy. Most PM'S get knotted 5 minutes after leaving No. 10, but neither of them have. Now they haven't been invited to the wedding, because they are not knights.

I think it is deeper than that Ken. TB made it plain he was miffed at her Majesty when he became PM and then the Cherie failure to curtsey to the queen, topped off with her yelling all over the media what a fantastic sex life she has with her husband. Hardly the type of people one wants at such an auspicious occasion as a royal wedding.

Phony's first mistake was trying to tell Liz what to do, royaly are like elephants and have a very long memory. If I was as ugly as Cherie Blair, I would probably brag about my sex life as well. In fact if I was as ugly as her, I would probably be making porn movies.
