How bad will it be when she goes ? I cant be in this country when it happens

It will be hilarious.

/ a massive let down.

don’t give them ideas

wow really - i've seen that loads this last week and assumed it was satirical

Me too. Isn't it?

My guess : an absolute minimum of ten-thousand times as horrendous!!!

Most likely, there won't be much of a Covid factor by then ('Her Maj' has surely got at least five years left in her, right?)

So the crowds that Diana pulled in 1997 will never be able to match Eliz's future funeral throngs.

As crowdpulling performances by corpses go, Queen will qualify for the Pyramid, Lady Di-Di s crowd would only have matched that going to the Other.

But most discerning sorts will head down the all-night banging-party area, or obscure little bands tents areas, according to republican tastes

None of that Main Stages stuff for us Urban coolsters!

This is where I first saw it below. My reaction was to laugh at how ridiculous it was. I don't know what the image creator intended but if it was meant as satire then I don't think everyone gets the joke.

A lunatic friend has just sent this. The worst bit is she will have signed, and probably expects me to do the same.

People dying isn’t hilarious

Standups in various comedy clubs, and their audiences, may disagree .....

 

[Nine Bob Note]

But what exactly should such a vessel be called? Philly McPhil Face is a potential contender, but that possibly sounds like a Philadelphia diner on Man vs Food...

It is if they’re slipping on banana skins

People dying isn’t hilarious

It is if they're in any way connected to the royal leeches.

And?

And... you're still a tool.

Wouldn't it be fun if William and Harry had a fight during the funeral. I assume they're both trained since they did time in the army. I think my money would be on William starting it, and Harry finishing it.

How about Philip McNazi?

They're a man down because full back Jeffrey Epstein has been sent off.

Yeh Harry'd end up knocking William into the grave and dumping a ton of earth on him

I can think of one or two deaths that'll raise at least a wry chuckle

The probability of that actually happening is very high, we already have an aircraft carrier named Prince of Wales.
What happens to the title of Duke of Edinburgh now though? Does someone else get it? Does it get marked as a spare one in Brenda's spreadsheet until we next have a Queen who needs to give her new hubby a fancy title.
Mrs Q occasionally muses about how she will divide her jewellery amongst our daughters when she is gone(though some of it has been nabbed by them already) Does Brenda have a similar issue with posh titles.

Just as a quick aside some posters may enjoy this song about the death of ian stuart donaldson by the criminally underrated dog on a rope

For about 10 seconds I genuinely thought you meant Edward Snowden

More of these please, or post the ‘artist’ name, they are awesome!

In one of his books Sven Hassel observes that artists who paint recruiting posters were third rate hacks. And while I like the picture of Philip and Diana ("together forever") it's not really awesome, at least second rate and in the case of the "three graces" very much third.

I’m hoping for more. Edward VIII and Megan would be brilliant.

Apparently Prince Edward will get that title, once The Queen dies.

It's to do with what the people who decide such things think that us proles will stand for. Like how Camilla always gets called The Duchess of Cornwall, even though she is The Princess of Wales, but the Diana-philes would have vapours if Camilla got called it.
