The Royal Wedding is just around the corner, and in traditional British style many of our Club sites will be hosting a number of celebrations on 19 May. From cream teas and cucumber sandwiches to barbecues and cupcakes - and not forgetting the all-important Pimm’s and fizz, there will be refreshments to help toast Harry and Meghan's big day. Find out which sites will be hosting wedding themed afternoons here.

    Is there a Brides Father lookalike staying at Henley Four Oaks that could pop down to Windsor if required at short notice? tongue-out

    Turning into a meedja circus by the look of it.

    If it doesn't go well there always the footy on afterwards to console yourselves.

    We'll be out elsewhere doing something active cool

    We’re off to overnight that day at Dover before going to France the next day, but OH has decreed we cannot leave home until the wedding is all over. Thankfully, I will be meticulously loading car and caravan ALL morning.

    Mine too!  We booked last minute to get away from it so my blood ran cold seeing Ro's post.

    We are away this weekend to a club site. Unfortunately it isn't on the list but we are having our own little celebration as we have got some flags to decorate the van and are planning on having an afternoon BBQ. We were at Blackpool CC for the Queens jubilee a few years ago and the atmosphere was great.

    We were at Hillhead for the Jubilee, as you say Francis, a great atmosphere, we enjoyed it and the staff organised various events. smile

    Not a fan of royalty and being in the south of France without a TV I'm quite happy to miss it. But I do wish them a good future together.

    I’m not a Royalist but I’ve warmed to the new generation in the shape of Harry & Meghan. I hope they enjoy their lives together & those who will be celebrating with them on C&MC sites I wish you a great day👍🏻👏🏻👏🏻😊

    I'm not a Royalist either and agree with your comments Rocky.

    I am beginning to believe that it's better the devil you know than the Trump you don't.innocent

    I, too, wish them well. I’m not anti-Royal at all but I have no desire to be involved in any celebrations.

    The C&CC site I’m on at the moment is also having a cream tea but we’ll be gone by then👍🏻. It will no doubt be a great success as people here are chatting and laughing with fellow campers. I know, it’s so odd. surprisedwink

    I wish them the same good luck that I wish all young couples setting out on married life, but I won't be glued to the TV on the day ( well, not till the footie comes on, anyway! wink)

    We'll be well out of the way on a quiet CL, and can think of nothing worse than spending morning &/or afternoon sat watching the TV, Royal Wedding or not. I'd much rather be out walking, be it fine or raining.

    I`d rather have royalty than President Corbyn or May any day but have to admit not the slightest bit interest in this wedding!

    How about big screen tv's for the football. Not forgetting the pies and pints of course. Much more traditional

    No chance of seeing it or football where I will be. That is not something I am bothered about, more concerned about how to avoid the road closures caused by the Giro d'Italia.

    We are not away this weekend so Mrs DK can watch to her hearts content in the comfort of our lounge. Mr DK may well look in from time to time, afterall it is history in the making even if you don't like that sort of history but history nonetheless!
