Let's hope we're not heading for a State Funeral on top of everything else!

It would certainly not surprise me.

Well, it's going to happen one day, she's really knocking on now, would be boom time for tourism in London, hoteliers will enjoy it & florists will be quite happy to supply the millions cut flowers & sympathy cards to get piled up wastefully outside the gates of the palace.

Death does happen you know, it's a fact of life, even 90 odd year old monarchs aren't immune.

God save her anyway.

This has absolutely nothing to do with The McCann Affair.  Start a Thread somewhere else.

Could you at least try to keep to the point? You sideswipes at anyone who disagrees are not only immature but becoming rather tedious.

My post was entirely on point and in response to yours about how long some cases to solve, even if the suspect has been in the police's sights for some time.

I think sadly that we are.  I rather dread the outpouring of joy and delight that will follow from the small but highly vocal anti-Monarchists online.

I don't think they will make much of an impact as the whole world will mourn this amazing woman when she departs  this life.

I'm not a monarchist but still have respect for the old gal.
She has served with grace & dignity, even when the rest of her family couldn't behave themselves.

I’m a Republican but my heart goes out to the Queen’s family and all those close to her. It is such a terrible time for them all.

Yes, it's like any role. It's not about the role it's about the person who filled it. I see Prince Harry's arrived from wherever, so it looks serious.

Yes, they are all rushing to be at her bedside so must be bad.
She looked OK in the pictures with Liz Truss the other day but sadly at her age things can change suddenly.
Anyway, gawd save 'er.

No I know, but I don't really want to read any of their nasty shite so will have to give FB and newspaper comments a wide berth for a few weeks when it happens.

Her husbands funeral was an insult to her. Covid restrictions, which the PM & other MP's repeatedly breached, meant the poor old gal had to sit alone.
I found that appalling.

Quite often I despair that perfectly good, informative posts and discussions well worth their own threads being irretrievably 'lost' by ending up being posted here.
