• Starting today August 7th, 2024, in order to post in the Married Couples, Courting Couples, or Singles forums, you will not be allowed to post if you have your Marital status designated as private. Announcements will be made in the respective forums as well but please note that if yours is currently listed as Private, you will need to submit a ticket in the Support Area to have yours changed.

  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.
  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

Yes, Prince Philip missed the concert last night, and the service, carriage ride and fly past today. He is said to be getting better thankfully.

It has been a wonderful weekend. The Queen is very popular and sixty years is a long reign. Today there was a church service in St Paul's Cathedral to thank God for it.

Thank you, overseas friends for your interest. I had wondered if the news of it had been broadcast in your countries.

We do not have one person in America who can generate this much patriotism or affection from so many.

The media has not done much for televizing the events...I watched BBC America or went online for news.

What lovely posts Anglewind; thank you for your affection for our country. I see you're in California. I have second cousins there. My great-aunt left Wales about 100 years ago to live in the States.

I love that photo of Prince Charles kissing his mother's hand, and the choir of children sang beautifully. Another moment which stays in my mind is the choir at the end of the flotilla, who were on the deck of a boat in pouring rain, singing to the Queen. They were soaking wet, hair plastered down their faces, but they continued to sing. The music was wonderful.
