Queen Elizabeth II | 1926-2022 | Rest in Peace

What a moving a fitting tribute to a wonderful lady. Watching that today made me proud of my country.

Don't get this pride sentiment at all. Do you think other countries aren't capable of such ceremony?
 
I just want to say that I think I've been very well behaved since the Queen died. Unlike many who took her death as a sign to vociferously hate the monarchy, I took two weeks off.
 
Aye. I would have probably had it on in the background of I had been at home. But I chose to cover at work. Unfortunately my work is one where we never close completely.

I made the decision because I am on my own these days and even my dad is out the country so I thought sack it I'll go in
 
No Michael Owen? He would have been so perfect for this one.

She‘s in the coffin and in some ways there’s never been a better time for it in her long and distinguished career.
 
I didn't mind her, apart from being the Queen. She was about the best of them. Though that's relative.

you’ll have chuzza to get to know and love just as much now. and shh, i know it might seem daunting without her there; guiding hand ‘pon your shoulder. but just when it’s darkest, just when the silence deafens, you’ll feel that hand grip you tight once more. though this time it is different. it feels like sausages.
 
You mean calling a cnut out for being a cnut?
Nah, just calling someone a cnut and then finishing my post with "I'm not going to say what I think of you, because I don't think it's worth getting banned".

Genius obscuration. Will use it every time I need to insult someone.

Yeah that’s what everyone thinks of when they think of you Colin. I bet you put your leather jacket on to type that one out

There’s no bannings today I’ve heard

Misdemeanours have been pardoned for 24 hours due the ceremony.
 
Appalling that everyone with no interest in this were tied to a chair and forced to watch it rather than go to work

I'm in another country and mildly irked the football was cancelled. I think it was broader than today's televised bit. Also its literally waving flags in the faces of the millions who don't want a monarchy. To have mourning and pageantry and opulence on this scale you have to factor in that not everybody in on-board.
 
It was the perfect day for her with the exception that she's dead?

There's no proof she is though, she could have just wanted to step down and live underground for the rest of her days

Joking of course
 
Born and bred in England. If some of you lot can't even respect the monarchy you live with, Not under. That's your problem.
