The long dark tea-time of the soul

Sunday
A quiet day, I did what I wanted to do at the desk. Then I watched people filing past the Queens coffin lying in state on TV. 
Kev got home at his usual time. Knackered as he said it was as busy as we thought it would be with the shop being shut on Monday. 
Charlotte came round in the evening and we played a game and a quiz. 
Monday.
The Queen's Funeral.
Our 27th Wedding Anniversary.
We got up around 8.30 am
Kev showered while I exercised. 
We got ourselves sorted out and ready to start watching. It was then that Charlotte came round with a card and gift. 
We all settled down to watch all the pomp and ceremony of the funeral... It was both beautiful and moving. 
It was amazing to see all the navy pulling the gun carriage. 
The little Prince George and his sister Charlotte behaved impeccably. 
We watched that then the smaller ceremony at St Georges Chapel in Windsor. Which I thought was lovely. It got me when they showed you her pony as the funeral procession went past. And the corgis at Windsor Castle gateway.
