HM The Queen Page 7

I'm down the Mall waiting for Beaky. We are going to wave our little flags together. (not a euphemism)

I'm waving my little flag from home, and wearing my trousers at half mast. (Cue joke about what's different there?)

Michael said he'd been joining us, and had wet himself with the excitement, but that could have been the Mel C photo he was clutching in his fist at the time.

It's nice seeing all the old British PMs togethe. It's like that episode of Doctor Who when all the old Doctors get together.

Once that gun carriage moved off from outside Westminster Hall, and the mass bagpipe band started up, that was me gone. ?

Very moving. I don't know what it is about bagpipes and funerals for me, but they just set me off.

To be fair, the sound from a single piper is enough to make a stone cry.

Bagpipes make me cry too. That's how bad they are.

Dr Who will be attending last week.

Davros always put me in mind of the Queen Mother

I think it was the green teeth

Hard pushed to know where to post this.
It's a cartoon, but it isn't funny.
I guess here is as good place as any.
Very moving, I thought.

Aww, I don't know what to say about that. Thank you for posting.

The brilliant Morten Morland strikes just the right note. Poignant without being cloying.
