I guessed you wouldn't understand

Hate to agree with rA on this one, I don't understand the hysteria, the flowers or the queues to look at the coffin. The latter is like rubbernecking at crashes on a motorway, maybe even schadenfreude. Let her slip away with dignity, not as an item to go and stare at.

I don’t see hysteria although I do see way too much media waffling. IMO hysteria was what we saw when Diana died, that was bizarre. Of course to each their own and given the choice between joining a royalist friend on a trip to see Queenie, or Magnum at Rock City, prog rock won the day

I didn’t get that either...but at least she was a young mother who died very suddenly in tragic and possibly criminal circumstances. Anyway, if you’re putting Rock City before the Queen we’re not so different in outlook are we?

There can be common ground and differences in any friendship, real or virtual, and I think we are some distance apart on this one

I certainly don't get standing for hours just to walk past something covered in a flag! I mean what are you even looking at FFS!

Still the livestream is riveting and the banal drivel being spouted is incoherent and embarrassing. Still at least the Uk is good at queues and very good at dressing up in silly clothes and marching apparently.

Why? You know you love me really...you’re coming round.
