Sad day. She ruled with dignity while her kids and grandkids tried their best to bring the whole show down. Suspect it will lead to a real rethink on the role of the monarchy in the future.

On a brighter note if the games are called off this weekend it gives Bruno and Max more time to get fit and I won't have to buy drinks for Chippy on Sunday.

Not just that, her uncle had a good shot at bringing it all down too.

she followed her fathers footsteps really, just being solid as a rock while everything around you is ****ing chaos.

Games called off on Friday, nothing said about Sat and Sun yet.
 
For the record, I think it's ****ing archaic and pathetic to remove all sense of fun. This woman did her duty but lived the MOST privileged life across 96 years. Her life should be celebrated, minutes silences across grounds and so on, not squash all ****ing fun so we can sit in silence and be depressed about mortality.

****ing hate the UK. I might leave.

Regardless of her privileged life, she was born into it and had no choice and did an amazing job.

I do however agree the idea of "national mourning" is tedious and stupid, and yes a celebration of her life is the way to go. In the same way when I die I want the funeral to be a full on party piss up, not folks sitting around crying.

I didn’t realise you regarded football as fun.


The maids in the house have spent the morning watching BBC World News and their one question was: Do you think her teeth are her own as they seem in good nick for a 96 year old?

She's had the very best of everything her whole life so I'd guess they're her own teeth.
