why do they need to point at a set of gates all coverage

Rail strikes next week could make this interesting

Operation Overstudy - moving the coffin by RAF plane.

Does this mean Camilla will be on the stamps? I don't think I could lick those stamps...

 

[Diddums]

Stop talking crap you goons, she's gonna bust out of hospital shortly doing a Theresa May dance whilst yelling "syke".

Isn't the official notice of her death posted on those gates?

Not when one has one's own train!

If the strikers refuse to accommodate the Royal Train or whatever is required, I can't see that reflecting well on their cause.

I think its to not show and tells from the presenters and people being interviewed

Huw has had a few moments where his voice has cracked like hes about to cry

If I was her and I liked balmoral then alI would insist on it. Even if it meant being cremated and spread across the grounds.

The Queen doesn't get to decide, that's part of being Queen, it's literally a state funeral. Her entire life was basically in service of the realm, that comes with a lot of privilege, but it also comes with responsibility.

I thought something was up when I saw that picture with the cannula bruising.
Part me of me wonders if she has passed, and that there is being an allowance made for the close family to have a private moment before they announce
Being covered all over.. and visually all media in black is telling

I mean they plan these things for years in advance, they all have code names etc
