The old girl has had a good run! If she's approarching the end, or has more time left, I hope she gets to spend it in comfort and peace and retain her dignity.

My grandmother is nearly 6 months older, and is slowing down a bit, but still kicking.

flatbutt 09-08-2022 07:47 AM

The Queen is a remarkable person. Whatever is to come I echo Masraum's hope for peace and comfort. Her dignity is a big part of her legacy and beyond reproach.

matthewb0051 09-08-2022 07:52 AM

Hoping the best for her. I've always had the utmost respect for her.


Charles on the other hand...

Andrew on the other hand:rolleyes::rolleyes:

The Dignity of the Crown will die with Eliz.

Kind of interesting to see the Queen progress toward the end of her life - also sad. I watched her coronation on our black & white TV as a kid and thought she was the most beautiful Princes that ever could be.

I think Wills and Katherine are good though. Their youngest kid, Louis, is a hoot. He may end up on the cover of tabloids eventually.

She’s gone. RIP

The Queen is dead, Long live the King.
 
Queen Elizabeth II just died after 70 years on the throne.
The crown now passes to Charles.

But here's a thought, Abolish the Monarchy.

GH85Carrera 09-08-2022 09:43 AM

RIP, to her. She has been a good example of royalty. The British royal family is something all my knowledge of them is unwanted. The news insists to try to put them in the news. I honestly can't possible care less about the entire family.

Diana was a pretty lady and should be an example of never ride in cars driven by drunks, and if she had just worn he seat belt she would be alive.

Elizabeth certainly lived a long life of wealth and power.

matthewb0051 09-08-2022 09:47 AM

Well crap.

I looked up and the TV screen showed it. Sad day indeed.

rusnak 09-08-2022 09:52 AM

Oh wow.

Rest in peace, Your Highness.

Reiver 09-08-2022 09:56 AM

Queen Elizebeth passes....
 
A very classy lady has passed...not into the Monarchy thing but thought she was as good as it gets in that position.

Tobra 09-08-2022 09:58 AM

I am told if you can't say anything nice, you should not say anything.


I am sure her dogs will be well cared for.

Baz 09-08-2022 09:59 AM

Condolences to all of Great Britain, the world, and the Queen's family and friends..... :(

Sooner or later 09-08-2022 10:03 AM

RIP, honorable lady

Sooner or later 09-08-2022 10:05 AM

Rip

pwd72s 09-08-2022 10:10 AM

Abolish the monarchy? Hey, the Brits love their Royals...gives them something to gossip about.

Rest in peace, Queen Elizabeth...God save King Charles.

craigster59 09-08-2022 10:11 AM

Between Charles, Andrew, Harry & Meghan she had to put up with a lot of scandal and familial infighting at the end. I'm sure that may have contributed to her demise. RIP Queen.

masraum 09-08-2022 10:17 AM

I believe the Monarchy is a symbol more than anything else these days.

The Synergizer 09-08-2022 10:20 AM

A shame, her passing and also the passing of a soon to be forgotten honorable and proud era the younger generation won't understand.

GH85Carrera 09-08-2022 10:47 AM

What did she pass, gas or a kidney stone?

I never understood that phrase, that someone passes. She died! Kicked the bucket, croaked and breather her last breath. It will happen to every living thing.

She was a classy lady, and certainly had a long and privileged life. I wonder if she ever had to cook her own food, clean the house, scrub a toilet or go shopping.

RIP Elizabeth. A phenomenally long working life. And thanks for looking after us in NZ.

The Monarchy are a working family. All parliaments n the commonwealth report to the Queen, or Charles, from now on.

So did Winston Churchill.

How do you divvy up all their land holdings?

I doubt she did much cooking or cleaning. I suspect she had plenty of other crap that she had to deal with that your average person wouldn't want to deal with.

She did serve in WWII

She had a great run , what a classy lady . RIP

flatbutt 09-08-2022 01:45 PM

She may have been pampered and privileged but she was not a prissy princess. She could hunt, shoot and do basic maintenance on her vehicles.

WPOZZZ 09-08-2022 01:56 PM

She will be missed. RIP.

dewolf 09-08-2022 02:08 PM

Her life was not her own. She was 100% committed to her country and her title. She was told how to talk, how to walk, and how to hold herself. All of which she done without question. A legacy of a different era has gone. May she rest in peace.

jamesnmlaw 09-08-2022 02:47 PM

The Queen is dead. Long live the King.
