Mark Flego leans on the gilded gates of Buckingham Palace, clutching a red plastic bag.
The telephone repairman from New York has just bought two fridge magnets and a thimble picturing soon-to-wed Prince William -- grandson of Queen Elizabeth II -- and Kate Middleton. The souvenirs are for Flego’s mom, who keeps a book of press clippings from the Queen’s 1947 wedding, and for his sister, who owns a thimble featuring William’s late mother Diana.
