      @@josephturner7569 It sure does, but sometimes we need to stop and pause, to reflect on the impact of people and events. Most of us, like you and me, are completely inconsequential, while others either attain or have greatness forced upon them... Not all monarchs are great, but this one truly was and so it was fitting that those who appreciated her, gave their time to pay respect. If you have nothing good to say, maybe on this occasion, it would be better to say nothing at all!

    The line of people were those who waited to walk passed her cask as our dear Queen laid in State. People queued for up to 24 hours just to walk passed and take a moment to thank her and say goodbye. The queue lasted for days ( a week, I think). There were 10 days of mourning. I was glued to proceedings on the television and cried everyday. By the time of the State funeral I thought I had none left. But there were more.
    Just broke when she arrived back home at Windsor Castle and her pony Emma and her corgis were waiting for her. 🥹
    We went to visit her resting place in St George’s Chapel last year.
    In tears yet again!

Yes celebrities of today are a more dubious self centred lot than they ever have been but Beckham hasn't just been a celebrity from overnight and 1 thing he has always been and genuinely so is patriotic from his beginnings of ordinary working class environment, fervent belief in this country having a monarchy and having played for his country not least scoring a certain free kick that if it wouldn't have been for him that match all those years ago England wouldn't have qualified. As previously said he didn't have to, but he joined the long line of every ordinary member of the public and shared in that genuine emotion and grief.

    I'm left-wing politically, but I still value the monarchy. The ceremonies lasted nine hours, and I watched the whole thing.
    England became a unity in 927 AD, and Scotland in 843. You do realise we've still got the same family of both on the throne? Therefore the Monarch represents all our history. The Monarch is also the Head of all our Armed Forces.
    Just to note. The beautiful flag draped over her coffin is the very historic Royal Standard of the United Kingdom. On it were three of the Crown Jewels: the Imperial State Crown, containing important ancient jewels and the second largest cut diamond in the world; the Orb; and the Royal Sceptre, having for its head the largest cut diamond in the world.
    Elizabeth II was from the upper classes of the UK, and had many of their attitudes; but because she wasn't a politician, her interest in the people was honestly what she thought was best for us. Her position doesn't officially have power, but she was told everything, and over the years she acquired great experience of top-level circles.

      The attention to detail was amazing. She was carried on board the aeroplane in Edinburgh by the Royal Regiment of Scotland, covered in the Royal Standard of Scotland, and carried off in London by the RAF, covered in the Royal Standard of the UK. Someone had made sure that it was aboard.
      It's also worth seeing her travel from Balmoral to Edinburgh, from the Palace of Holyroodhouse there to St Giles Cathedral, to lie there under the Crown of Scotland, and there ceremony and vigil there.
      The Princess Royal promised her mother that she would be by her side and she was, every step of the way.
