Absolutely brilliant. I laughed out loud listening to this. I’m more of a ‘Roundhead’ than a ‘Cavalier’, but I feel very sad. I’ve been lucky enough to have met the Queen and she was lovely. She has represented this country with grace and humility. RIP Queen Elizabeth II
I didn't meet her, but she waved to me once as she passed by in her car- I was the only one there at that time.
I waved at her as a 4 year old boy. I was sat on my late dad's shoulders. We were stood on Argyle Street corner as she passed on her way to open the HRI in 1967.
Phillip came to me today, and said it was time to go. I looked at him and smiled, as i whispered that "I know" I then turned and looked behind me, and seen I was asleep. All my Family were around me, and I could hear them weep. I gently touched each shoulder, with Phillip by my side. Then I turned away and walked, with My Angel guide. Phillip held my hand, as he lead the way, to a world where King's and Queens, are Monarch's every day.
She was a great friend to America, and to the world. Condolences to the people of the UK. Long live the King.
Over the course of her 70-year-reign, Queen Elizabeth saw more than a few regime changes in American politics. In total, she spent time with 13 out of the last 14 sitting U.S. presidents. Which one missed the cut?
I heard the singing of God save the King tonight, that was weird, no one’s going to get through that properly for years yet. And the Queen was gracious, Charlie on the other hand, far from it.
