Anybody offended by anything written on this thread, whatever you do, do not go out for a beer with Trevor Sinclair!

I'm not even British and I'm slightly ticked off by the lack of respect and just common decency really

On the forum?

I thought it's been very respectful.

I thought so also

Three cheers for the Queen. She has been a FANTASTIC Sport.

I wonder what will happen to those naughty corgi dogs.

I'm sure they'll be well looked after, but will undoubtedly pine. Happily, dogs are social animals so they just need a little time to adjust and they'll be fine.

Your right. Maybe even gifted to her household staff who have cared for them alongside the Queen. I'm sure their will be a happy ending. Even her horses for that matter.

I apologise to anyone who's found my comments disrespectful but it's really hard to maintain respect when the news is being forced down your throat 24/7. No news as to what our new PM's doing, I don't believe war in Ukraine has stopped, Trump might have been arrested by now for all we know.

Well it's a seismic event in history no matter how you look at it, so much so that our markets have been wiped and suspended for the unforeseeable, it holds considerably more weight than the daily news update from Russia etc

Nothing holds more weight than people dying and hard-up people worrying themselves to death about their energy bills are no small matter. Many people may not even be aware about the latest energy cap.

I didn't know the queen served in the army as a mechanic.

Yep, did her bit in the war. Would have been so easy for a Royal princess to hide away during the war (plenty of rich people did) but she got her hands dirty (as did millions). It’s a small example of winning respect through one’s actions in spite of one’s status (not because of one’s status).
