I hope the funeral is on a Saturday and we get the Monday off as a bank holiday
That way the course will be empty when I play Saturday and I can get another round in on Monday too

I wonder how long she gets to spend aboard the Reptoid mothership before being assigned a new replicant host?
I guess that Elon Musk will soon announce another child is on the way.

I guess I got on a plane at the right time in case they wanted to have the skies clear to show respect or some shit.

Wills hasn't fucked about with getting his title updated on Twitter... Jesus! What’s he promoted to? King-in-waiting?

"The Duke and Duchess of Cornwall and Cambridge" (Charles and Camilla's title until a few hours ago)
I mean let the body get cold first at least...

It'll be staff and protocol doing that as the titles pass immediately

Hope they've had the presence of mind not to leave the body alone with Andrew.

Yeah nobody’s hanging about, QC’s are already rebranding to King’s Counsel on their websites too. They should make it King’s Formal Counsel to mark the occasion.

I think folks were on the money earlier when they remarked at the BBC referring to her in the past tense: the PM was told at around 4:30

Would be the perfect time to get rid of the royal family as nobody particularly likes Charles.

Heir Apparent has been the Prince of Wales too for a long time now.

I don’t think there will be a time when ‘Queen Consort’ doesn’t make Camilla sound like a hooker

No, apparently Prince of Wales isn't a title that automatically passes, it has to be formally bestowed.

There's a court case relating to my work happening for the next few weeks. I assume this morning they switch to 'all rise for Her Honour the King's judge'. A bit surreal.

Of course all the brands are coming out to pay their respects, as awkward as they may be, This is my favourite so far Genuinely love this. Carries far more feeling than the bland statements put out. Albeit probably with a commercial interest.
