In that case, dream up a mate at the pub who’s been upset by the loss of the monarch and needs consoling. All day. Over a lot of beers.

The queue to see the Queen is getting so long that by the time you get there you’ll probably be able to see Charles as well.

Looking at who’s coming for the funeral, Putin could win it all with one tactical nuke.

I thought you were going to say the queue will be seen from space! Actually, surely instead of being buried, she should be launched into space as a bright satellite - eternally orbiting like a shining star…

Hey y’all! Condolences. I’m not much of a royalist, nor anti for that matter. Doubt I’ll watch the funeral. The passing of the era has left so many, even down here, bemused and with no forward plans for when this was likely to occur! I honestly get the feeling most people felt The Queen would live forever (no pun intended!) and were blindsided when she actually did.
The Era was all I ever knew from a monarchy point of view, so I shall cast a intrigued eye over King Charles reign and how it shall all turn out.
May you get what you need from the mourning process on a personal level and lets hope the ship that is The Commonwealth continues to prosper.

I can just imagine the fragrant Victoria kicking his arse out the door to get out there and do his bit. “Just think darlin, Sir David and Lady Beckham, its within our grasp, don’t forget to hold back the sobs when you file past cos it will be the main photo in all the papers in the morning.”
