Another Saturday

So everyone saw the Royal Wedding. Nice wedding gown right? None of the flair of Diana; a little understated and austere: an updated Victorian gown ... and the Queen Elisabeth tiara (late Queen Mother that is) with the tulle veil (just like the Queen Mother on her wedding day) ... it was like a remake of the George VI/Elisabeth wedding all over again! Perhaps that was the message William-Kate wanted to give - back to the good old days when the monarchy was looked up to.

Tomorrow is another big day - the beatification of John Paul II. Celebrations are being prepared here, espcially by our Polish nuns because it's also Divine Mercy Sunday - their feastday. What's happening in your part of the world?

Today it's raining and cold. Weird weather as only a few days ago it was hot and sunny. Influenza time. I got some Acamol (paracetamol) to fight the flu I just caught. And the sisters from the hospital came and said I should expect pain from the operation for some time yet. Some good news huh? ....

Hope you enjoyed the videos of the Holy Week services here. It's really special ... because it all happened here.
