Out of interest the most recent burial of an English monarch was only 7 years ago.

Huw Edwards is getting tired. He’s obviously starting sentences and forgetting or hesitating over the endings.
Can’t blame him, as he seems to have been there on our screens since the first announcement. Well done Huw.

He may well retire after this. He may have been staying on for this very event.

I’m struck by all the trees on London streets, Manchester could follow this example and plant more, especially in the town centre.

I've done it 4 times. Both parents and a couple of uncles. Hated the gig, to be honest. Your overriding feeling is, don't mess it up.

When we shouldered my Dad it hadn't occurred to us, and the undertaker failed to mention, that because he'd had to be flown home from hols it was a lined coffin, which weighed a fair bit more than normal. How we got him up the church steps is still a mystery!

That has flashed through my mind a couple of times this week! Great minds think alike…… don’t anyone think of finishing that quote!!! ;-)

I suspect there’ll be another one sometime in the next 20 years.

That just wont be the same. There will only be a fraction of the mourning for King Charles as there has been for the Queen.

Ok, time to eat time! Ta ra to you all as well, thanks for your ‘company’. Have a good afternoon. :-)
