Forgot About the Wedding

I forgot about the wedding this weekend.  Should have saved all those last few postcards for the build up to the big day!

So, in honor of the royal wedding, a few more postcards from England.

Here we have the beefeaters, more formerly known as  Yeomen Warders of Her Majesty’s Royal Palace and Fortress the Tower of London. One of their primary roles is as guardians of the crown jewels which reside in the Tower of London.  If I were marrying into the royal family, I would certainly want to try on a few of those crown jewels, just for fun.

Dye Cut Postcards

No, this isn't a picture clipped out of people magazine.  It's one of a huge stack of postcards my son brought back from Europe this summer, and gave to me for Christmas.  A dye cut card of Lady Di - a double dye/di, if you will.

I'm always a sucker for an irregularly shaped postcard, and this one is particularly good.  Plus with all the talk of another royal wedding, it seemed fitting, somehow.....

Just for fun, here's another:

Might as well stay in England for a quick cup o' tea, as well.
