Yes good

Off to Windsor Castle.

Leaving London for the last time

Holly and Phil are really getting a good kick in for this queue jump nonsense. Don't mind her, can't stand him, crazy the sh!t they're getting though :joker:

Huw had his own dig

This was superb all through.
The actual service in the Abbey seemed to lose its like continuity a bit.

However excellent to see, we have this and do this all so brilliantly, I'd never want that to be lost.

It really touched me.
As all this has since the passing of Her Majesty the late Queen.

It's been a rollercoaster of a couple of weeks.
I always was a Monarchist, I'm certainly even more cemented in my thinking as to that now.
Not that I think all they do is right.
No way.
However I'd hate to think of this Nation under a President.

what has been said before in this thread, a very historic moment this



my own opinion on Queen Lizzie, not to sound like a cliché now but like the song goes, a gracious queen


and i am liking Charles a lot more recently, and him and Camilla make a beautiful couple too, much more natural fitting together rather than him and Diana, i wish him best of luck on his reign as the new monarch and i am interested and curious what he'll do with his charity, pass it onto William or keep it as king's trust since it is a very important charitable cause which he always deeply cared for too, for development and improvement of vulnerable young people in terms of homelessness, mental health




well spoken again from PM Truss as well




busy times for our own King & Queen too, Willem Alexander having his 3rd tuesday of september prinsjesdag speech tomorrow, good he was still able to find the time to attend this funeral alongside his mom and wife

:joker:well done LT for posting this.

I could near believe it so.:joker:

"superstar VIP" :hehe:

I mean it's ridiculous, but i can understand people having the hump. Now, do they apologise or keep up their story of not jumping the queue? :shrug:

Also, they skipped an episode of classic Eastenders because it had the death of a very minor character, not even on screen. :nono:

Familiar territory now…used to live in Ashford and Staines…:laugh:

Reports NZ
will be first out

To Dump the New King.

omg Huw :joker:

Ditto.

Hopefully energy and fuel prices drop now as a mark of respect to the Queen. I wonder if those OAPs in their dingy one bed flats wear black when trying not to freeze to death this winter.

Hundreds of millions well spent on this 12 day event imo.

The world doesn’t work the way you think

People don’t work for nothing even those collecting for charity get paid.

I know, and i know. Doesn't make it right though does it?!

Thinking it’s wrong won’t change it I’m afraid .

It's a start though. Pointing out what is clearly wrong!

We all know what’s wrong with the world
People know the price of everything and the value of nothing.

David D saying St Georges Chapel will be more of a family funeral and then you find Tony Blair et al have been bussed from Westminster :skull:

Tbh I am finding all the marching a bit much, its far too impersonal, same thing over and over again

thats marching for you
