It's been announced,
I'm so sad. I've never known another monarch. For most of my life I took no notice of her, I've come to appreciate her in the last 20 years or so. She came across as an excellent person who went about her duties in a stoic manner, never complaining. We've seen a lovely side of late, firstly the clever James Bond interlude during the opening of the Olympics and latterly the Paddington sketch. Just the other day, when she looked so tiny and frail but still smiling. That's how I'll remember her.
RIP our wonderful Queen so many of us are really going to miss you.
