Very sad. But she did do a bleddy good job. Well past normal retirement age. :(

And if, as reported, she passed peacefully in a place she loved all her life, well what happier way to go.

Hope we can all be as lucky when our own time comes.

Don't feel sad just weird, she was 96 and it's what you might expect from a 96 year old but Im 66 and she's all I've ever known as monarch. Imagine singing "God Save the King", half the England football team and supporters won't know the words!

It will take some time to get used to saying/singing "God Save The King". It's one of those events you know is going to happen at some point but still seems a bit unreal when it happens.

So many things will change, Our Currency, Stamps, Even Postboxes will have to be changed to have Charles's head and name put onto things, In fact every single official thing that bear's the Monarchs name in the UK will have to be changed, This is a truly scemic moment.

It will be like coming back to work in January after Christmas and dating something with the previous year. RIP Her Majesty, a sad day.

Massive cost to the treasury, the final straw that tips the U.K. into complete financial chaos and social instability, how ironic.
