Journey to Westminster Abbey

The lying in state at Westminster Hall will conclude at 6.30am, with the doors
closed in preparation for the funeral.

Shortly after 10.35am, the coffin will be lifted and carried in procession to
the state gun carriage of the Royal Navy positioned outside the north door.


The 123-year-old gun carriage will then set off at 10.44am, pulled by 98
Royal Navy sailors using ropes in a tradition that dates back to the funeral of
Queen Victoria, with the route to the Abbey lined by members of the Royal
Navy and Royal Marines.

A tri-service guard of honour will take place on Parliament Square,
accompanied by the band of the Royal Marines.

Following the Queen's coffin will be the King, Anne, Andrew and Edward.
Behind them will be the Queen's grandsons Peter Phillips, the Duke of Sussex
and the Prince of Wales.

They will be followed by the Queen's son-in-law Vice Admiral Sir Tim
Laurence, her cousin the Duke of Gloucester, and her nephew the Earl of
Snowdon.

The procession, led by a massed Pipes & Drums of Scottish and Irish
Regiments, the Brigade of Gurkhas, and the Royal Air Force and numbering
200 musicians, will arrive at 10.52 and the coffin will be carried into the
Abbey for the service.

The doors to Westminster Abbey will have opened at 8.00am to allow the
general congregation to take their seats, with a total of 2,000 people
expected to gather for the funeral.

they say it will be the biggest organised event since the end of the war

Towards the end of the service, the Last Post will be played, followed by a national two-
minute silence. The conclusion of the state funeral, expected at 12:00, will be marked by a
lament played by the Queen's piper.

I’ll be celebrating by travelling to buy a puppy, like Lizzie would have wanted

Corgi?

Adorable dogs but no, I’m not that respectful

hope its a Pembrokshire Corgi :fc:

:joker:

I thought Charles was flogging them already :eyes:

what :laugh:

The Queens Corgis, wasn't he left in charge of them? I thought I read that somewhere

or was that Andrew?

Yeah Andrew and Anne, the Queen stopped breeding corgis in 2012 as she didnt want to leave young dogs behind and I think the last of her corgis died in 2015 but in 2020 she was given a puppy, after Philip died Andrew gave her a puppy so I guess the deal was he would look after it.

:nono:

Dogs should not be bought

they should be rescued

Bloody Royals!

I was in Sainsburys this morning buying a loaf of bread when an old woman asked the assistant if Sainsburys would be closed next Monday, the day of the funeral.

I chuckled to myself a bit because Sainburys is always open on Bank Holidays.

Shocked, I heard the assistant say Sainburys would be closed all day Monday. Wow.

Yes I think a lot of the superstores are closing Monday when they would normally stay open...

People willo be panic buying on Sunday now :laugh:

Yes, just like Christmas - buying for a month.:shocked:

Disgusting comment.

Camilla has two rescue dogs :fist:

That doesn't surprise me , she was The Queen .. we knew she'd get a huge funeral ,which will become another historical moment.

I'll admit .. I want to watch it .
