Not much news of this on my side of the pond...except that Kate is related to a few famous Americans:
1st President: George Washington,
Meriwether Lewis of the 1803 Lewis and Clark: Voyage of Discovery, and
General George S. Patton, of World War II fame.

Re: Bill & Kate
Oh hard luck Minnesota, so now you will to put up with the same reams of rubbish in your papers and TV as they will for sure, the point out the connections ad infinitum, however glad you mentioned it, as there be so many tourist from the USA, coming in to their Kate marrying in to "THE ROYALS" that it will probably cure the financial problems of the UK

Re: Bill & Kate
Who? What? Why?When? I know that when my folks were young thing like this were huge - but quite frankly now is it really so earth shattering that two people who love each other want to marry - not matter how famous they are?

Let us be lovely
And let us be kind
Let us be silly and free
It won't make us famous
It won't make us rich
But damn it how happy we'll be!
