Queen Elizabeth II has passed away - keep posts civil and respectful

[Begbie]

Agree. Unfortunately I think the death of the Queen will be a big milestone in the decline of the UK.

Times like this I wish I still had a TV license/a TV. Social medial is just the worst for events like this.

Just watch it, what are they going to do? Kick your door in as soon as you watch the news?

My nan was totally fine, lived on her own, no mobility issues until she was 95, had one fall and then 9 months later she had deteriorated dramatically and needed fulltime care then died aged 96

Well the police had to confiscate my great-grandad’s bike for being a danger to traffic. 95. He worked in the hop farms, spent his entire life working outside and he deteriorated once confined to the home.

I think there’s a lot said for mental exercise and physical exercise lengthening life time.

I know they have taken down the no entry sign to Balmoral, but is that a hand sanitiser thing on the right? Sure that needs to come off too so they get clean images. Stand out like a sore thumb.

I feel it'll be small but because Charlies doesn't want that kind of ceremony anyway

It will not be up to him. Like the Duke's event, he decided. The Queen will already have made her wishes known and that is how it will be carried out.

BBC just said the Sussex's are travelling up on their own, and not with the other. Still a rift there it seems.

I always liked the queen. Very funny lady and seemed to take a genuine interest in people, no matter their background.

Or, you know, they were traveling from elsewhere and it made more sense to do that?

 

[Droolinggimp]

No way. just went onto google maps on my pc and looked for Balmoral, as I have no idea exactly where it is, the street view man icon...........cool

Looking at back at today's message #370 I think I would like to send TheOracle £50 if he or she promises never to give opinion as to my future well being! A more appropriate forum name is sadly hard to imagine.

They were in London, like the others.

Regardless of what I think of the royals and the Queen, she has had a bloody good innings at 96 and lead a very interesting life.

If she has passed or about to hope it's not painful and gets a good send off from family

 

[Tephnos]

So what's this about the flag?

I thought they were in Germany for Invictus Games promotion stuff.

I think one can rest assured, despite Great Britain's problems, Her Majesty will have an exceptionally "good" send off!

Suppose to go to half mast isn't it

Does look amazing, doesn't it. The hilly scenery and the River Dee flowing through it all.

 

[McGray]

Will they cancel sporting events?

Beeb said they were in London 'shrug'
