Requiescat in pace!

She was a beautiful woman, and a great monarch. The world will seem different without her.

The definition of a legend. What a sad day this is.

[Thursday Next]

The definition of duty and a remarkable woman in so many ways. Rest in Peace, your majesty.

They are together again...

Long live the King!

[Stirchley]

I had my little cries yesterday. So much good stuff on Twitter & later in The NY Times. Only monarch I’ve known.

Feel sorry for Charles. Fairly sure the last thing he wants is to be king.

Very impressed that Her Majesty hung in & welcomed Liz Truss as PM (Churchill was her first PM which, in itself, is amazing). No way was she going to leave something unfinished.

Wonderful woman. R.I.P. God Save the King.

Trade war with EU.

[Stirchley]

Trade war with EU.

No clue what this means. If it’s something negative against the Queen, please post it someplace else.

[Tugg]

RIP Elizabeth.

Liz Truss bangs on about breaking Northern Ireland Protocol and starting a trade war with EU.

Today, we have a day off in the family to follow the entire funeral ceremony and procession.
The National Television here plus two more private TV channels are broadcasting everything. In addition, The YouTube Royal Family Channel is turned on on the laptop.

From Westminster Abbey to Windsor...

Rest in Peace Your Majesty.

[Stirchley]

My middle brother emailed me to tell they’re watching it on a big screen & it’s amazing in England.

Will get to it later, I hope.

[Mesmerized]

I watched some of the procession and the funeral in the St. George Chapel. I was amazed at how big this event was. So many people.

I guess it’s because she’s been Queen for just about everyone who’s alive right now. 1952 was a long time ago. :)

[gandalf26]

What do you Americans think of all our pomp at the funeral? I felt it was a stunning display and worthy send off. RIP

God Save the King!

[John Dumbear]

Pardon my ignorance, but were any heads of state in attendance?

[Nausicaä]

Name any and they were probably there, unless you're Russia and so on...

[mrblond]

Pardon my ignorance, but were any heads of state in attendance?

The Westminster Abbey was prepared for 2,200 people for the first part of the official ceremony.
They've limited it up to two persons per state for none-Commonwealth countries. There were some exceptions only for Royal Houses.
Joe and Jill Biden were there in the group of the country presidents.
About 19 people represented Canada and almost the same number for Australia.

How sad, at this historic moment, there were not representatives of Russia.
---

In addition, near 100 TV broadcasters world-wide covered about four billions of the population.

[gandalf26]

Pardon my ignorance, but were any heads of state in attendance?

Just about everyone, or at least sending representatives. The naughty ones were nnot invited, like Putin.

[gandalf26]

Was very strange hearing "God save the King" as the new national anthem.

[Stirchley]

How sad, at this historic moment, there were not representatives of Russia.

Not in the least bit sad. No despots & lunatics invited.
