Yup. I reckon she's been gone since about 11.00 this morning.

I was reading somewhere about a 9 day mourning period which means a Saturday funeral. FFS.

Funeral = Date of death + 10 days

It's still on at the moment. So a friend tells me anyway...

Even Russia couldn't bring down pornhub.

Had a brief listen to Huw & Nick on the beeb. I can honestly say, apart from acknowledging that it's sad when someone passes, her death will not affect me practically at all. Someone else just takes her place

Charles Anne Andrew & Edward might argue that with you .

I don't know her. Got nothing against her but will not affect me. Hope they don't close everything down

Wait til you experience the disruption

Assuming she's already died, there will not be an announcement until all the family have arrived at Balmoral. So you probably have another couple of hours before national mourning mode is activated.

It will be short lived, we have other ways to distract ourselves.

I've got the Beeb on in the background where I'm working. I swear I just heard Nicholas Witchell say that the Queen's corgis "know nothing of her status."

Hope they don't rearange Saturdays game for when I'm on holiday

Posted: **Thu Sep 08, 2022 3:18 pm**

Whoops. A BBC journalist tweeted this and then quickly deleted it.

Posted: **Thu Sep 08, 2022 3:24 pm**

Oooff she’ll be out of a job

Heh, journalists making announcements ahead of official confirmation could be a fun sport.

The same time as the other one

Huw Edwards saying talk of transition may not be premature, so I’d like to place on record my appreciation for the work done by his majesty the king over the last 7 decades

Posted: **Thu Sep 08, 2022 3:36 pm**

My favourite thing today is zoom guests wildly speculating about cause of death

Posted: **Thu Sep 08, 2022 3:38 pm**

Kind of pathetic really that some journalists want to be first to announce it.

Posted: **Thu Sep 08, 2022 3:40 pm**

Huw Edwards is pretty much outright saying that she’s dead. It’s genuinely impressive how well he’s communicating it without breaking protocol.

Posted: **Thu Sep 08, 2022 3:57 pm**

We're probably about an hour from the announcement. I'm popping to the shop - anyone want anything?
