How will they fit his ears on a stamp ?

Maybe Vincent Van Gogh would stand in for him, that would solve half of the problem.

St Pauls Cathedral is stunning.

St Pauls Cathedral is stunning.

Lots of ordinary people there too, which is great to see. Have just booked tickets for my MIL to attend the service of remembrance at Durham Cathedral next Saturday, which should be equally stunning.

Cathedral or Abbey? Her Maj wasn't Roman Catholic.

Cathedral. It doesn't matter for a service of remembrance.

Ahhh okey dokey, l thought maybe the poster was suggesting she may be interred there. Far too long a thread now to have to wade through every page.

Fine address by HM King.

Fine address by HM King.

Wonder who wrote it?

I thought the King's speech was very heartfelt and well delivered.

We shouldn't forget that he, irrespective of all that is going on, is a man who lost his mother yesterday.

Indeed.

You’re mixing it up with the two Westminster ‘buildings’.

Agree - must be very emotional for him, I wondered if he was beginning to lose it a little, with the angels comment at the end. (Which is fine incidentally for the reason you stated).

He was visibly welling up when he spoke of her final journey with angels.

Sent us two here into a tear or two.

Just the very human vulnerability.

I have just been reminded that St Paul's is an Anglican Cathedral.

 

[Harry Wilson's tackle]

I seem to hear someone shouting in the background during the address . . . . if so, how absolutely classless

 

[Is it PotG?]

Few things bring up the hairs on the neck like a solitary piper.

Magnificent.

I have just been reminded that St Paul's is an Anglican Cathedral.

However, Westminster Cathedral is Catholic.

Not sure there is a St Paul's Abbey!
