some soccer guy stood in line for 12 hours to walk by the coffin. I cannot comprehend this! As balmy as london is that old lady must be getting ripe. Originally Posted by winn dixie

Of course you have no idea who that is. Or his wife.

How ridiculous.

You wear the mantle of “The Ugly American” like a badge of honour.

hahahahahahahahahahahahah
... Ca'mon mates, we don't need insults to each-other.
There's more than enough insults to The Queen already.

Not sure WHY Americans have to take their shots at
the people of England and their love for The Queen.

... Yssup and me-self have pointed out that many
people surely believe The Queen was a force of Good.

Though everybody is entitled to their-own opinion.

Older article but a great subject. The high cost of monarchy and the calls to abolish it!
These feelings across the globe is at an all time high today.
... Kinda agree-with Yssup and Preece here, Winn.

There are a Great Number of People who thought the
Queen was doing a good job... Let's not forget
Her role is symbolic...

At one point, the British crown OWNED much of the world. Surely you don't think little, uneducated Lillibet did that, do you?

Why do you give a shit?

We do any of us?

Yet here we are.

The Lying In State procession is still going on and it's schedule to end at 6 am which is in less than 5 hours.

There are people still in the long Queue, which stopped adding new people to it hours ago.

Some of the folks who have been in line for 12-15 hours will never get to the lying in state and will be told to go home when that clock hits 6 am.

I will be real mad to be told to go home after I stood out there in the weather for 12-15 hours.

Did you "know" President Kennedy? ... Elvis?
Martin Lutther King? ... Ned Kelly?

May people surely mourned their deaths.

The people of England surely KNEW-OF HER.
And Her good works.

Interesting info about Queen Elizabeth's Corgis and a few Dorgi (when the Corgis decided to have relations with Dachhunds)
