The Queen's funeral is to be held on 19th September 2022
at 11am London time (8pm Monday night AEST) in Westminster
Abbey. The Queen's funeral will be the first time a
British monarch's funeral has been held at Westminster
Abbey since 1760.

About 2,000 special guests will be invited to the funeral.
Her Majesty's coffin will leave Balmoral on Sunday (7pm AEST),
to travel to Edinburgh where members will be able to view it
at St. Giles's Cathedral from 5pm on Monday for 24 hours.

I was glad to see that William and Harry came together to
take a walkabout with their wives to look at the flowers
left by members of the public. Hopefully their father may
have influenced the decision for the brothers to put aside
their misunderstandings at this time of family grieving.
Nice to see. As was King Charles's acknowledgement of his love
for Harry and Meghan in his first speech as King.

Foxy,
See your discussion on it being OK to make fun of religion, Aboriginal Australians’s religion is part of their culture, a very important part, but you think that it’s alright to have a go at it.

Is January your favourite month?

Tonight at 8.30pm on Chanel 9 - 60 Minutes:
King Charles III.

The Queen is dead, long live the King. This
will be a special edition of 60 Minutes remembering
the most admired woman in the world and welcoming
her successor.

And for a ‘truly’ Indigenous Australians views on the death of Her Majesty, just Google Caitlin Moran.
Her remark is considered to bethe most despicable ever heard in this country about our deceases Head of State.
Can’t post it on this forum, rules donn’t allow such under gutter language.

Queen Elizabeth II
Was such a well-known face
Although she lived so far away
She's someone we embraced

She lived to a ripe old age
Ninety six to be exact
She saw so many changes
Not all she could adapt

However she did her very best
And in her job she thrived
For which her people were so keen
To have her stay alive

Finally the time did come
When sadly her husband died
She suddenly had to cope alone
Without him by her side

It wasn't easy but she tried
To soldier on against the tide
Until her health just flickered out
And she was covered with a shroud

The Queen is dead and we all mourn
Our monarch's left us all forlorn
And in her place her son will reign
King Charles III is now his name

It's a time of mourning across the realms
A different ruler is at the helm
May he be as dedicated to the cause
As dedicated as his mother was

Then with one voice
We'll gladly sing
Out loud and glorious
"God Save Our Precious King!"
