The Queue is closed

Long live the Queue!

 

[moochedit]

jebus its only 7 hours before the thing close are they going to be kicking the daft and grannies through westminster catherdal

Bayonet charge from the rear of the queue to make them move faster.

Are you sure you were in The Queue? Because The Queue doesn't go over Westminster bridge, it goes over Lambeth bridge, or at least it did on friday.

Oh. Maybe but on the North bank of the Thames it certainly felt like I was in The Queue. Saw some wristbands. I was definitely queueing for something.

Anyway I’m not rewriting all that so here we are.

Yeah, teuchter is right you were definitely not in the queue.
At best you were just unofficially queueing to cross the bridge and get ready to camp out for the night for a good spot for tomorrow.

After Westminster bridge the queue is completely closed off and continues down the south side of the river before crossing to the north and heading east back to Westminster. At earlier points in bermondsey and even quite a long way along the south bank it would have been possible to join if everyone in the queue let you, but not with a bike.

It was the best of times it was the worst of times, I bring you a story of kings and queens, rabble and rozzers. And The Queue.

Waterloo station, on the way back from the Royal county of Surrey I felt the pull of The Queue.

It wended its way through the buildings of the south Bank, acting as sentries and overwatchers of The Queue.

I stifled a fit of giggles as I first laid my eyes on the people that formed the bodily mass of The Queue.

There were thousands of them, like middle England had formed itself into a snake like entity called The Queue.

I followed the river of people to Westminster Bridge which had become the confluence of two rivers. The Thames and The Queue.

Halfway across the Bridge my eyes fell upon an abomination. Piers Corbyn, harassing the people of The Queue.

I made my way over to him and listened to his drivel before asking him where he got this shit from and told him he was a dangerous idiot responsible for the deaths of thousands. I then returned to The Queue.

At this point myself and my bicycle became entangled with the thousands of people, people who had come to look at The Queue. Some who were The Queue.

I was now in The Queue.

I could not leave The Queue.

I could not cycle through The Queue.

I had to remain in The Queue.

But then I remembered Urban 75 needed to know about The Queue.

There were tourists, out of towners, bridge and tunnelers and no doubt a sprinkling of Londoners in The Queue.

There were police from everywhere, Norfolk, Heddlu, Manchester, all managing The Queue.

Finally I spotted a way out of The Queue.

I took it. Fuck that for a game of soldiers.

You can see the exact moment I detoured over to call Corbyn an idiot. SCIENCE!

I lied about the kings and queens bit tbh. There weren't any.

You saw Brigadoon
I saw the crescent
You saw the whole of the moon

I was The Queue adjacent and then in a queue near The Queue so I consider myself a veteran Queuer

Doubt that's on. It'll all be funeral coverage on the main channels all day. Still should have hotd ep5 to watch.

 

[WouldBe]

Long live the Queue!

The Queue is dead. Long live the Queue for the funeral.

Sorry man, I feel like a queue expert now after running along it (and back, and around Westminster). You were just in a crowd crossing a bridge.

 

[Ax^]

You saw Brigadoon
I saw the crescent
You saw the whole of the moon

as we should all reply

from now on if someone mentioned their humble suffering

"I waited 12 hours to pay my respects!!"

You'll have to watch it in slowmo to make it last the duration.

 

[Ted Striker]

Whilst the once burgeoning Queuementariat industry is facing the sunset of its existence, I think we can all agree it's been a hell of a ride

My plan is sleep in as long as possible. Get up and watch hotd. Then back to bed for a few hours

(My American boss mentions her emotional support dov quite often. I'm never sure if she's joking or not.)

Idea for a show lynn; knowing me knowing queue, I interview people in the queue and hear their fascinating anecdotes about standing in the dark for 12 hours

 

[Supine]

It’s getting big!

Big Jet TV could have done a special one off spin-off show: Big Queue TV, giving us a rundown on how quickly people approached and progressed through the hall, enrich the chat with outfit comments, untypical approaches to courtseing/bowing etc

They could've broke the Guinness world record , for passing an orange along a line, not using hands.
