I will be amazed If we see that massive Victorian monstrosity on view again for the actual funeral.

Flaming disgrace if you ask me, the whole casket thing, makes her look fat, and not the little old woman she was in her final year. She deserved a smaller coffin, one befitting her stature after 97 years. We love you Queen, Miss Elizabeth, a true down to earth sole from childhood to death.

They are not journalists ! she only jumped on the chance when Alice Beer told her she had queue jumped as a journo , a lot of people are very angry at those two 'tv hosts' since when were tv hosts journalists ?

Phil's only gay in the village now....
Thats his take on the day.

Easy tiger don’t bite me.
It’s in the context of reporting on the event by talking about it on Tver like other reporters and journalists are doing.

they will be seen as people who took advantage, particularly as Beckham waited in the queue with everyone else. People won't forget something like that

I stopped ever commenting on those threads as they all went the same way.

This thread is about the loss of Her Majesty the Queen, a very sad loss.
I feel as sure as I can be Her Majesty would really not approve at all at any of her family being got at in the lead up to her funeral in this mourning period.

I agree with you parmnion as to being supportive.
In fact all I've come across in the Royals at this time, ALL of them, is that in this time of deep grieving and dealing with the events, and in fact publicly scrutinised events of the events towards the funeral.

All I can see is a family, the best way they can be, being as supportive as they can be towards each other..
Accommodating the wishes and hopes of all involved.
For Her Majesty the late Queen.

The least everyone else can do for that great Lady's memory is not ridicule or condemn her family
On her loss of life thread here.

I agree with you too parmnion it is right that Prince Harry got to wear his uniform again.
Absolutely right.

I have barely commented at all since our Queen passed on these threads. Maybe have a look at the disrespect towards the Queen herself in this and other posts on these threads over the past week which didn’t seem to bother you at all.
No need for the sanctimonious tone. I was simply making it clear I’m not going down the ‘isn’t it all lovely and rosy with Harry and Meghan’ route because I’m entitled to my view and I’ve said what I wanted to. Finished. End of. Well, not quite - Harry is a prick no matter what he is wearing.

Strong and supportive imo..he knows what side his butters on.

Perhaps he was put there so he couldn’t be seen to be ignored…

Yes, I'll be doing the same.
It all has really gripped me, I don't think I'll likely ever be able to describe why.
However it has.

I'm sure it's going be a strange day but in other ways leave a very special memory.

Hope you've enjoyed your week off too.

I’m not agreeing with what they did only that was why they managed to do it.

You'd think people wouldn't forget that bots.
I'm not so sure sadly.

I agree fully with you that they will be seen as taking advantage and should too.

When as hijaxers says, look at the people who joined and stayed in the queue.

Harry has done everything right so far though, shmeg, just stay in the background please to limit damage.

That's good to hear Annie that she saw the King go past too.

How did she feel with the 16 hour wait?
I was really fortunate the day and time I went.
It was only around the 6 hour mark for me.

Although I don't think I'd have left the queue had it been going to be much longer, not once I was there.
Plus the time passed pretty good as I got talking to many others in the queue and it was fascinating talking to them about their thoughts and feelings being there.

Absolutely ' moving ' is the main word for the experience.
It will be with me forever.

That thing laying in state..its like a town centre eye sore (please search kelso town square monument)

That's not our queen inside all those flags in that hall. It better not be, cause she looks like half a magicians magic trick to me right now...very undignified.
