Royal wedding - the crowds

The Police estimated that there were over One million spectators on the the route through London and despite this there were only about fifty arrests. It is the crowds / the people who really make this kind of event. Sadly this was fifty more than there should have been . Those present enjoyed the spectacle and I have to say that the BBC's coverage was exemplary throughout.

The sight of the crowd marching down the Mall behind the Police line was reminiscent of the crowds following the final pairs down the last fairways at the Open Golf tournaments - very orderly, but today there were tens of thousands there and no trouble.

For those who are not happy with the way we do things the "British Way", and those who are hell bent in turning this into a third World state, it is time to take a hike back to where you came from.
