Maybe heā€™s not a big fan of AC/DC or Rolf Harris?

Charles will never get the respect his mother had after the way he cheated on Diana

Iā€™ve always liked Prince Charles now King Charles Also who could do this just after your mother has passed away.

We listened to Charles on the radio while driving back from Scarborough.
He seems to have improved with age and thought it was a good well presented speech.
Heā€™ll doā€¦

Iā€™m a little bit disappointed at everything closing down, stopping, and being switched off, Shops, sport fixtures all being cancelled, and programs on tv focusing so much on rehashing the same info. Billboards everywhere, the black headlines in shops, every webpage I go on has condolence front page. I even got emails from things I have subscribed to saying that schedules have been rearranged due to the queens passing.

It feels like we are being ā€œforcedā€ to mourn.

Mourning has broken.

I think youā€™ll find Rolf Harris has spent the last half century in Britain and AccaDacca have virtually stopped performing. But hey hoā€¦

Itā€™s normal to have a period of mourning in most countries when a Head of State dies. However, our Queen was so extraordinary that various countries around the world are holding periods of mourning in her honour. I guess we are just not used to it because we have had a Head of State for 70 years.

The Queen is the first British monarch to die since things like the internet, and multimedia such as faecesbook and YouTube etc., have been invented. There was nothing like that when George VI died - we had barely got used to the miracle of TV - so it is not really surprising that they have all gone OTT. Irritating, maybe, but not surprising.

Hi

It seems like an eternity doesnā€™t it?

There are practical reasons why it is such a long period of mourning.

There has to be sufficient time for arrangements to be made to allow the numerous heads of state who wish to attend the funeral to do so.

Elizabeth, Lizzie, Lillibet,

The greatest Monarch in history yet,

Across the years your were our norm,

And now our nations begin to mourn.

Your spirit, work and dedication,

Shows through the loss across our nation!

Reunited with your Prince above,

I pray you can both feel our love,

Every church and every steeple,

Youā€™ll forever be the Queen of the people

Prince Charles speaks of a loving mother.

In ā€˜The Crownā€™ the Queen is portrayed as being cold - especially towards Prince Charlesā€¦

Does he know anything else? His father apparently treated him like shit.
