Who would have guessed?

First, let me say that I'm in favour of Charles marrying Camilla.

But, well, let's look at the facts (grin!)

  1. Charles says to God, "Lord, send me a sign, as the soon-to-be head of your church, whether it is ok to marry" ... The Pope dies
  2. Charles says to God, "Lord, send me a sign, as the soon-to-be replacement for the long serving head of this country" ... Prince Rainier (longest reigning European monarch) dies.
  3. Charles says to God, "Lord, stop mucking about, how about some nice weather for my wedding on Friday?". The weather forecast for London for Thursday through to next week (http://www.bbc.co.uk/weather/5day.shtml?world=0008)

Thursday: High 13, Low 5
Friday: High 5, Low 0
Saturday: High 10, Low 5
Sunday: High 15, Low 8
Monday: High 19, Low 9

(and yes, they've moved the wedding to Saturday due to the Pope's funeral)

Either it is total coincidence, or God's aim is off!
