I see that the lovely bride will leave from the Goring Hotel.
I bet all ''normal guests'' have had bookings turned down for this special weekend,

I wondered whatt they do about guests who have booked well in advance even before the wedding was announced,,
I'd be pretty wazzed off if my reservation had been cancelled,

In view of all the security involved I am not sure that I would want to stay at the Goring at the same time as the bride-to-be. So perhaps they are doing the cancelled guests a favour! But since the room rates range from £410 to £1,525 per night it wouldn't be an option for me anyway!

It was on the news this morning that Kate's mother still hasn't met the Queen. With the ceremony only a week on Friday they are leaving things to the last minute! I hope that Kate knows what she is letting herself in for. I hope it doesn't all end in tears.

I did think it was a bit off allowing cameras in round the suite. Expect the prices will rocket (guests will wish to sleep in the bed Kate slept in) in order recuperate the £150,000 they spent on refurbishment.
