THE WEDDING OF Britain’s Prince William to Kate Middleton earlier today has achieved the mind-boggling title of the largest event in internet history – ever.
Watched live by an estimated two billion people, and celebrated by citizens from Norfolk to New Dehli, it isn’t that hard to see how. But thankfully for Kate, the most important aspect of the day (the dress of course) was well received.
We’ve put together a slideshow of the jubilation across the world today…

Unfortunately seems loads of people do, my guilty secret is I watched it from start to finish, against my principles, but hey I’m female and only interested in the fashion!!!!! Don’t even believe that myself.
To be fair, its not like anyone had much choice! It was on every channel!! :-)
I enjoyed the day doing some DIY Sadie, and had a little watch of proceedings in London too. Glad it went off peacefully and all seemed to have a great day. Thanks for your concern for my entertainment options though.
