Oh blimey, I guess we won't be seeing the coffin at Westminster Hall then :-(

It was the club’s committee meeting last night, and the room we use is in a Council building and has always had a pic of the queen hanging up on the wall. It did seem a bit unusual to do a minute’s science at the start of the meeting, with her pic on the wall.

Yeah, I commented to OH the other day that Charles must be knackered. The travelling and all the speeches etc he has to do, putting the game face on all the time, getting the right tone. It must be absolutely exhausting.

When the Queen formally opened Norfolk & Norwich hospital, I was tasked with holding the door for her, the photographs didn't get as good a photo as I did so they asked to use mine :-)

The RAF C17 aircraft is a beautiful looking, majestic plane - very fitting for the Queen's last journey from Scotland.

So sad to see the Queen leave Scotland for the last time but I think we, as a nation, did her proud on her last journey.

You certainly did, DQ. Very dignified and beautifully supported along the long journey, from leaving Balmoral to leaving Edinburgh.

I see many of Charles' staff were given redundancy notices during today's church service. Harsh.

We saw the plane fly over us tonight just before we set off for club run. It was a strange feeling knowing that she was in there.
