5th anniversary is wood!
Yea but 10th is tin and as its my 10th anniversary this year with my wife i reckon she'd prefer wood over a tin of beans...
Soldato
Exactly, wood is enduring. Everyone loves good wood.

@Feek apologies, what did I incorrectly post? Sincere question!

He seems like a really nice guy. I wrote to him once when deployed and he sent me and my boys a bunch of signed stuff and a personal written message but... I'll never forgive the fact he (still!) sees himself as bigger/better than Freddie

If I were to repeat it, I'd have to delete my own post. It wasn't especially family friendly 
They did that twenty years ago, didn't they? Wouldn't have seemed right to do the same thing again.

Alicia Keys did good. Made some of my generation acts look well over the hill. But she can sing. I may get a vinyl.
Im not a fan but she was excellent. I thought the younger acts were all good personally.
Could have connected with zoom to Windsor.
Ross was celebrating a past era so, age, excused - song choice reference to metoo; continued absence of reference to Ukraine, or those lost in covid (practically biggest incidents in her rein)
How many drones was that - a record - must have done well if the wind speed is like here.

It is not a political event, it's a celebration of her 70 years on the throne. Why should Covid or Ukraine be even mentioned? No others were, except possibly climate change. You are talking about the last two years, much else has happened.
I expect that she was not sitting up watching television so would not wish to be on Zoom.

Ah fair. I posted a couple of things in a short space and forgot what you deleted but now it comes back to me. Genuinely surprised that was over the mark given some of the language but I respectfully concede nonethelessIf I were to repeat it, I'd have to delete my own post.

I'm seeing Diana Ross at glasto this year. Fully expecting a lip sync shuffle around the stage but I'm sure it'll be glorious whatever she does.

Lee Mack did get a partygate jab in at the beginning (which made me laugh)
My mates playing the John Peel stage that weekend. Give that stage some love too lol.

Agreed, as did I albeit ruefully. However life goes on and this week we were presented by a couple of rather shabby individuals living out their troubles and strife live on TV for the delectation of the masses. As if we really needed their grief.
A bit of a do in the park and some flag waving is much more amenable and people had fun.
It was nothing to do with Ukraine or Covid though, so why would they be mentioned. As important as they both are, not sure either of them are the biggest incidents over the past 70 years. There have been *many*, which is really the point - not the topics of the day.

Who is your mate if you don't mind telling? I'll take my small army of friends and groupie it for them.
