The "let's try and keep everything going" highlights the sense of loss many of us felt. All smiles turned upside down that day after a wonderful year of celebration ! As the old British adage goes "keep calm and carry on".

Deepest condolences as well from Germany. The Queen has always been the "Worldwide Granny of my Generation", I was born in 1974, and everybody here always loved her for her unique waving and her calm voice, which took away the fear of the future. Life will also be different for us from now on and we will miss Her Royal Highness very much. May her soul rest in peace and hopefully the Queen be reunited with the love of her life.

The weight of losing both parents in a year must be crushing. Then he needs to keep it together to support a new, young PM, and an entire dynasty. Here's when he can showcase his 70 years of training. Let's not judge him for his one big mistake. Let's judge him for his upcoming years. Hoping he will lead on climate change. He also has Princess Anne.

It’s a weird new vibe having a king instead of queen. What’s more is that it is highly unlikely we’ll ever see another queen in our lifetime. From Charles it will pass to William. And that will probably be a long stretch of time.

@lanceheaps581 Рік тому

@@icecreamforcrowhurst yeah agreed the only one in the line of succession now with any chance would be Princess Charolette. I am 40 so I am sure short of her brother George dying prior to Prince William dying no way would I see another queen in my lifetime. If George has a daughter someday she would be in the line of succession, but I am sure I would be long dead before she would take the throne.
