Queen Elizabeth II

[BlueAnorak]

End of international speak like a pirate day.
Shiver me timbers.

Elizabeth Arrrrrrrr

 

[Gaylord du Bois]

To what ?

Tuesday. Wednesday to follow, if I'm not mistaken.

 

[Bazzmand Show]

Anyone else feeling slightly emotionally exhausted by the week and then today's procession.

It was beautifully done but there has been something incredibly draining about it all. I guess it's just the fact the last 10 days have felt like one long funeral.

 

[mat]

Less than an hour to go now.

Zombie Apocalypse?

 

[Ifwecouldjust.......]

Must be well over a million people lining the Queens funeral procession today.

not sure but it must've been pretty close

Best part for me fucking immense. Nothing will beat that.

I was there today .... and whilst I didn't see that bit ... it sounded awesome and thanks for posting the footage.

I've broken out a new bottle of Dubonnet in the Queen's honour.

The BBC have put a real treat on tonight, making jewellery out of concrete and perspex.

Life returns to normal pretty quickly.

 

[Vic]

Jankers is the term you're looking for.

Not for going to a military jail.

 

[KS55]

Nobody does this stuff like we do. Can be a bit contrived, but ppl like it.

 

[west didsblue]

Did anyone hear this on ITV?

Yep I heard it and rewound to listen again. It was odd to say the least.

Tbf, they’ve had blanket coverage for the last ten days. And still do on their flagship and news channels. At what point is it acceptable to return to some kind of normality?

 

[Vic]

The New Normal? Are they booking Frankie Boyle for Charlies wake?

Taking a call from a grateful banker.

I kind of miss her now. She's like yer gran, wasn't she? But richer.

I should have said banality instead of normality really, I didn't watch any of the ten days I switched onto BBC when someone posted 1 hour left, then curiosity got the better of me and I was treated to making jewellery out of bits of plastic and concrete.

It’s a repeat from last week as they changed the time last week and some missed it. I can tell you what happens if you like? My recorder thing notices when they change the time (& sometimes the channel) which I find spookier than that probably fake audio stating the obvious! :-)

Did you notice the sly dig at Kerry Katona? Are rusty bails really considered things to wear :)

Not where I come from but then I don’t wear jewellery very often. I’m just fascinated with how they make them and the judge with the eye thing examining everything!

Were you in Atomic Kitten?

I have watched a few programs like forged in steel where people make knives and useful things. Arts and crafts are not my forte and I prefer gold to tin.

That bagpipe tune in the procession to the Abbey, was so strident. So self-confident. A tune that befits a life purposefully lived.

She was a wonderful woman; a truly incredible human being.

She did us proud.
