Morning folks.RIP Elizabeth. My goodness that was quick! Meeting the old and new PM, gone 2 days later. Another online site speculated she had already died, seem to have been correct. My youngest daughter sent me a screenshot from wherever she gets news online,it said "Mirror accidentally announced death of Queen 2hours before she died,"so when I told her,she thought I was incorrect.She seemed to have aged overnight after loosing Phillip. What a strange week,new PM and a King.
Hi again everybody. Lovely seeing all the old photos and hearing what various people said. Brings back memories. Even hearing, would you believe, Vera Lyn sing the usual. 🙄🙄
Good morning all 😊 ☕️ It seems strange to wake up and remember what happened yesterday … it does seem like the end of an era … my parents’ generation finally ending … Ma looked a bit like HM and was once mistaken for her … (back when @WonkyWomble was small) … apparently rumours went around that the Queen was seen walking a corgi along Southwold sea front one blustery day … a local news reporter was sent out to investigate … heads were scratched, and then the lady at the tea hut remembered having her usual chat with Ma, in her sensible raincoat and headscarf, accompanied by her corgi Taffy … 2 and 2 were put together and the answer was 4 and HM was confirmed to have not set foot off Sandringham for several days.
Gardening in Central Norfolk on improved gritty moraine over chalk ... free-draining.
We'll have to agree to disagree ... I found it overly sentimental and inappropriate ... and on top of that poorly constructed .... not what I'd expect from a journalist let alone a senior politician .. a bit 'stream of consciousness' ... not for me I'm afraid.

Morning all. No TV for me over the last 24 hours. I can't do with all the gush. I am as upset that she has died as she would have been had I died. i.e. Zero.
I've just been to Waitrose and had a lovely chat with my colleague who worked as Royal Household Police for 23 years. He was wearing his Royal Victoria Medal of Honour for services to the royal family.

I agree @Busy-Lizzie. I didn’t think I would be this upset - and his words sum up why. Love him or hate him, he has a way with words.
