Definatley Won't be Postponed

LONDON (Reuters) - The wedding of Britain's Prince Charles to Camilla Parker Bowles will go ahead Friday even if it clashes with the funeral of Pope John Paul, Clarence House said Sunday.
"If the funeral falls Friday, the wedding will still go ahead," a spokeswoman said. The Pope's funeral was expected to be held between Wednesday and Friday.
The royal wedding has been hit by several glitches from the outset, with the British tabloids dubbing it a royal fiasco.
The venue had to be switched from Windsor Castle to the town hall in Windsor after a mix-up over marriage licenses. Constitutional experts have also questioned the legality of a civil ceremony. Charles divorced his first wife, Princess Diana, in 1996. She died in a car crash in Paris a year later. Queen Elizabeth has said she will not attend her eldest son's second marriage but she is planning to attend a blessing being given afterwards by Archbishop of Canterbury Rowan Williams at Windsor Castle, west of London.
