Has the Queen died?

[Dystopiary]

no, it wasn't: it dates back more than sixty years. The Royal Family name

Did not know that! Ta.

Sir Elton re-working a lachrymose version of Goodbye Yellow Brick Road as we speak, and calling his tailor to produce a dark Tudor waistcoat with black lace ruffs with "EIIR" tastefully picked our in sequinned lilac.

"Crocodile Rock" might be a better fit.

 

[planetgeli]

I always use the acronym mnemonic child poverty action group, which serves the purpose of riling me at the great gulf between the royal thicko and the millions of children his mum's government keep thrust down in penury

Very good. I might have thought of that myself if I had any idea what his full name was.

CPAG are brilliant. They wrote the bible of benefits when I worked in housing benefit.

"Crocodile Rock" might be a better fit.

Can safely rule out "I'm Still Standing".

I’m worried that they’ll announce Brenda’s passing during the summer holidays!

 

[Flavour]

September would be a good choice too. Days drawing in. Extra bit of summer holiday tacked on the end. Playing Earth Wind & Fire's "Dancing in September" on a bluetooth speaker under a bandstand pavilion in some dilapidated park in Norfolk. A dog walker shakes their head disapprovingly. "Is nothing sacred?" The music segues into the Prodigy's "Charly" -- the dog walker shuffles on, not understanding the reference.

An interesting division is made between football teams who dare hold a minute's silence (Chelsea, Southampton, Aston Villa) and those who do not (Liverpool, Newcastle, Burnley). The second division of English football, now known as the Championship, is renamed The Elizabeth The Second Division. A number of people decide to prank Prince Andrew at the funeral by ordering deliveroo to bring him Pizza Express -- hoardes of delivery riders amass outside the Cathedral in earnest, their Sloppy Giuseppe's slowly going cold on the back of their mopeds and e-bikes.

Up here we're still annoyed that they cancelled the Toon match the day Diana bit tunnel

Was looking forward to that one too.

Has anyone seen a photo of her alive over the last couple of weeks?

I am no medical expert but I think she is dead.

Can you just imagine what a scoop that would be for the Sun?
How all the people who are in close contact have mobile phones and Vardyism?
No, she is still definitely consuming oxygen.

 

[quiet guy]

She has to hang on until the Bank holiday, then she can pop her clogs officially so we can get another day or two off.

There won't be such a division. All the teams will observe silence. Some with their fingers crossed.

Will she make it to the bank holiday party?

She fucking better do. I've got some good stuff happening that weekend. If she dies and things get cancelled or pubs are closed, I will not be happy.

Let's hope she dies on the Sunday so we can have a REALLY long weekend.

From back on page #132 (apologies if there've been 'developments' since then )

My long-standing wish, for years, has been that when Her Maj croaks, it can be carefully and deliberately! timed so that the Parasite Funeral Bank Holiday (R, TM) will be on the final Satturday in June
With the following Monday as a Bank Holiday, obvs!

ETA : And obviously, that Glastonbury 202? isn't cancelled because of no-Queen** , but very falsely rebadged as a rural memorial event
(**not on line-up anyway )

And that the new Charlie coronation has to be delayed (because of fatfingeredness or something ), until mid-October -- there's a criminal! lack of Bank Holidays around that time of year!

As you can see, my real priorities are very far from Royalist

I think you might have given this too much thought…

THAT'S not a very nice (?!) THING to say!

I am no medical expert but I think she is dead.

Nonces tend to keep the body of their dead parents in the house for a while, for example Jimmy Savile. Anyway, what's Prince Andrew up to nowadays?

She was seen last night but after some investigation it turned out to be Beatrice.

Beatrice 'plays role of Queen' amid hopes monarch will go to Windsor Horse Show

The Queen’s granddaughter last night stood in for the 96-year-old monarch in a 'dress rehearsal' as Prince Andrew's daughter Beatrice played the role of the monarch

[ruffneck23]

I think she has been gone for a week or 2, it's so close to the woefully patriotic jubilee celebrations that they are keeping quite as so much has been invested in it.

But I know nothing.

Just seen this. But I don't think too many other people have been really bothered.

FWIW, I've posted like that on here for ever --only the currently departed Orang, and you, have ever made much of a thing about it.

And I wouldn't even know how to compose a post in danny la rouge style!

For your benefit anyway, I've omitted any smiles and underlinings and boldings from this post. Hope that helps. but it may well have to be a one-off
(I do a lot of hyphens too, BTW!).

My suggestion is : focus any pissed-off-ness you have onto the Monarchy!

That's not a flattering picture tbh, the expression on her face looks like she is doing an impression of Jack Nicholson in the Shining where he chops through the door.

I found that really difficult to follow.

It could be Andrew in a flesh suit.

Sorry William, it didn't piss me off or annoy me. I was sat having a night with a mate and reading some urban musings on Brenda. However, reading yours was proving fairly difficult because off said emojis and beer. More so the beer. I hope I didn't -offend -too - much- x

I really don't think that's true. I don't see how they could cover it up for so long. I do think she's really ill though.

I wasn't being completely serious, but i dont think she will be around by the end of the year.

The thread definitely needs more textual diversity.
