Queen Elizabeth II

The 8 lads carrying the coffin deserve the freedom of the city.

To have that responsibility on their shoulders literally and at such a young age and to carry it off so brilliantly should be applauded.

They've carried her onto and off the plane and now into the church. That will stay with them for the rest of their lives. It must've been very emotional for them all.

I take my hat off to all of them, they did the Queen proud.
At least a months paid leave I would hope I was really nervous for them.
 
Believe it or not, when I was a primary school kid, me and my mates were in a church choir like that. We went on a trip up to Carlisle Cathedral and sung there once.

The architecture is stunning. Certainly don’t build them like they used to.
I couldn’t even begin to imagine what it'd cost to build a replica of Westminster Abbey today. I'm not talking about a DH Gate replica now, I'm talking a carbon copy of the abbey, down to the last candlestick. It'd be frightening. Same with the Palace of Westminster, St Paul's etc etc. There's some stunning architecture in London.
 
People think I'm weird for loving visiting cathedrals even though I'm not religious in the slightest. I love the architecture and the history behind them
Went to Durham Catherdal when I was up there with work this last summer. It is an incredible feat of human engineering and endeavour.
