the royal wedding guest list


the royal wedding guest list

The British are bickering like the politics of the royal wedding list.Some nose is broken, because previous work premiers Tony Blair and Gordon Brown were not invited, but the former Conservative PM John Major and Margaret Thatcher (Thatcher fell because of bad health).


Even the conservative-leaning papers were steamed. In particular, if the original guest list call the representatives of Libya, Syria, Bahrain and Malawi, where local authorities are busy targeting violent protests recently noted.

Human rights activists also criticized the invitation extended to Swaziland, Zimbabwe and Saudi Arabia.

The Bahraini invitation finally denied, and the conservative government of Prime Minister David Cameron on Thursday withdrew an invitation to Syria, where some 450 people were killed during the insurgency in recent months against the authoritarian regime of Bashar Assad.

As for Blair and Brown, palace officials said there was no snub, but the question, protocol: Brown and Blair does not Knights of the Garter, but Thatcher and Major. Well, that explains it.

The annual Easter Egg Hunt in the rain be inside, but it certainly does not dampen the fun for the kids.

Young children in Broadview Heights on April 16 Pastel was a day of fun. This was the 30th year of the annual Easter Egg Hunt, Broadview Heights, Lion's, an event that often garners a large crowd. This year was no exception.
The downpour, but this is a small obstacle.

The event has been moved to the gym in the Broadview Center. Free to move around the room with friends - donuts in hand - all the kids played in the morning. The Easter bunny and a chicken in his hands was that the pictures in the morning and feel special, like I do.

American Bar and Grill, Glen Cove is the latest venture of MIM's Restaurant Group. His older brothers, Mim and the Syosset Mill Creek Tavern in Bayville, both casual neighborhood spots. Cedar Creek, opened in early March, much bigger and more upscale in appearance.

The square, which houses several restaurants, warm thanks to the recent renovation, dark wood paneling, brown leather banquettes, polished wood floors, cream walls and framed mirrors. Despite the clubby restaurant, luxurious look, the paper tablecloth bistro proclaims that this is a down to earth place, as the menu.

This menu is varied, the entrance of salads, half a dozen sandwiches, homemade pastas, seafood and meat entrees, including steaks. Three fish and meat dishes cost more than $ 20, everything else is just a teenager.
