The problem with Twitter, especially on a big news day, is that sometimes you come up with a good gag or bon mot and it gets lost in the morass of other people's twitterings. So, for posterity or those who don't follow my Twitter, @patrick_kidd, here are the pick of my thoughts on the Royal Wedding in 140 characters.
* Less than two hours to go to the unveiling of the dress. My money is on it being white. Possibly with silly frilly bits.
* Very sensible to make Wills Duke of Cambridge. Oxford is a right dump, only fit for Earls
* Huw Edwards interviewing Rowan Williams. All we need is Neil Kinnock and Charlotte Church and there will be a quorum for an Eisteddfod
* John Major surprisingly wearing a pink shirt with his morning dress. Maybe a red sock got mixed in with the wash?
* Lots of people worried about time people have to wait in the Abbey without a toilet break, can't they just do what Jez did in Peep Show?
* "We want wills" the crowd outside Clarence House shout. Probably worried about dying intestate
* I see the police outriders have chosen to wear yellow. Clashes with the Queen's outfit a bit. They should have co-ordinated
* So how long do we give the Daily Mail before they replace the "God bless 'er" stories with "Is Kate anorexic?" columns?
* And they've arrived at the Abbey. Doors to manual and cross-check... Thank you for flying easyRoyal, first-class for the return journey
* Kate enters to "I was Glad" by Hubert Parry. Not, sadly, "I'm so Glad" by Cream. Less waa-waa guitar, more organ
* I *love* Walton's "Crown Imperial", which the couple are walking out to. Almost as good as the Imperial March from Star Wars
* In Britain you need a royal wedding to become a duke or count. In the US, you just have to be a great jazz musician
* CLASSY idea to have William drive Kate away from the Palace in a vintage Aston Martin. Very cool. Wonder if it comes with stinger missiles?
* Radio 4 reporter just said that Prince William will be letting his hair down later. To judge from the hereditary baldness it's too late
* So that's it for Wills and Kate. Everyone back together next year for Harry's wedding in Vegas?
* Still enormous crowds milling around outside Buckingham Palace. At what point is it polite to set the corgis on them?
