So the bookies have laid out odds on the Royal Wedding with bets on things like what colour The Queen's hat will be and whether Kate's father will cry when he takes her down the isle.

Anything to make the countries most mundane day somehow interesting I suppose!

Also, 100-1 odds on Kate to leave William at the alter. Oddly tempted to have a flutter on that, also it would be hilarious!

Wish I knew how to place a bet, anyhoo the Queen will have a blue hat at a jaunty angle, Phil won't know where he is, and Harry will come out of the closet wearing the Queen's 2nd choice of hat.
And they all lived happily ever after...

All the time there are silly people who gamble, there will be bookies who are only too happy to take their money.

I notice you've removed your winnings for the year from your siggy, Geoff. Didn't back Aberdeen to win at the weekend by any chance, did you..?

No, stayed away from betting on that match with a bargepole.

Pity really because before the game I predicted the score line correctly.

LOL. It's comforting to know you have pretty much the same sort of faith in your team as I have in mine.

I like it that way. Whilst success is rare on the occasion we do do well or get a good result then it feels great. It was funny looking at Celtic fans leaving early in a match they where winning 4-0. I mean if we won a game 4-0 we'd release a DVD of it, for them it was just so run of the mill it can't be as fun following a team who always win.

I agree. Novelty bets on the Royal Wedding are good for a laugh. I wonder what price I'd get to bet the Queen comes out of the royal loo at some point in the reception, with her skirt tucked in the back of her knickers.

But at least the RW is a welcome distraction from the plethora of tedious lads adverts currently infesting commercial breaks on TV for gambling websites. If Ray Winstone comes on TV one more time, looking like Ron Manager in his camelhair coat and hamming up his faux cockney accent, to tell us to "bet in play.... nahhh" I'm going to scream

Pity the wedding isn't on Sky. Would love to see Ray Winstone go 'Hold up, the latest in play markets are on your screen naow' and for it just to say 'Charles caught on camera talking to the flowers in the bride's Bouquet before it's thrown: 7/1'

If she's anything like me the chance it happens will be quite high.
