Anyone interested can put down their name.  Does anyone remember the cardboard dolls you used to dress as a child. You know the ones, you press out different outfits and dress the dolls, they came in the form of a book. Well they've brought out ones with pictures of Kate and William. You press out different outfits they've been seen wearing. Just one of the things they have on sale. I wonder what others they will come up with. |

I used to love those cardboard dolls - we had 'Schoolfriend' and 'Girl' in our house - and 'the Eagle' because my father liked it! Well - I had two sisters.

Yankee Candle are doing a new scented candle called 'A Royal Wedding'. What does a royal wedding smell like then?   ;D |

They have a big Yankee Candle section in Wyevales but they obviously haven't got A Royal Wedding yet. Interesting to see if the proper stores have it LG. B&Q have had lots of complaints that their royal wedding gnomes don't look like Wills and Kate They're not supposed to apparently they are just for the spirit of the occasion. |

On The coin for the wedding £5.00 I think the image of Will aint bad, but of Kate, nothing like her. |

How can they charge double for what presumably is legal tender?

Yup, the Royal Mint. Some of the views under the article are a bit close to the mark! |

I guess lots of folk will buy them and put them away until...they're actually worth £9.99. I hope these 2 are happy. I keep thinking about all the razzamatazz before Diana and Charles got married and that did not have a happy ending  |

They have been together for ages, though, not like Charles & Di.

Yes they have.
Hope someone buys them a pair of gnomes for the royal back garden!
