RIP Ma'am

Admire what? Being born lucky?

I doubt anyone outside the UK really cares.

Enjoy the dirt nap, queenie.
 
If you don't like her that is fine.....

everyone has the right to their opinion but I say *may she rest in peace* :rose:
 
We should show respect to the Queen Mum, love or hate
her.......you had to admire her for the person who she is.

Rest in peace.

Born lucky? Her life was probably more stressful and burdened with more responsibility than you will ever see or could ever imagine. You should feel lucky.


May she rest in peace and may God bless her soul.

Hey, If I loathe her I don't have to admire her in the least.

It's sad when anyone dies but her? I'm with miles, just because you're born rich doesn't make your death any sadder.
 
She didn't want what she got, she made do with what was dealt her. She did not marry to be queen. Anyone who can live to 101 in the fish bowl that she was given has my admiration.

So she made do with the cards life dealt her, that's particularly admirable? Not too tricky when those cards ensure you'll never have to work a day in your life.

Give me a dirty, poor, crass Welsh coalminer who lived til he was 45 over a queen anyday

While I didn't bear her any ill will I must confess I could care less about the queen mother and as to what she was really like......well no one really knows because she hasn't given an interview in decades.
 
God bless her and her family. For those posting
disparaging remarks on her death I have no insults
but think carefully, do you think as many people
will give a shit when you die.

I have no doubt that when I die few will grieve and few will care and I will care even less.

I couldn't say. I know that the people who will care will care because of the man I am, not because I was born into a life of privilege.

A slight diversion from the queen for a moment...I do think it's entirely possible to be born into a life of privilege and be a remarkable person.
 
Living to 101 is an accomplishment, no matter what kind of life you were born to. She must have done something right to still be around this long. May she R.I.P.

p.s. I would not like to be born into a royal family. Fish bowls aren't for me.

I agree that for some the death of the queen mother will be a sad avent but for many more it will mean less than if the price of a loaf of bread went up, she had no impact on my and many others daily life and although I wished her no ill willl I'll not mourn her either.
 
I always thougt she was kinda sweet.
Like i wanted my granny to be.
Unfortunately my granny was a nasty old pig who had so many grandchildren she called us all "Hey,You".


Ya think Charles will marry Camilla now or what?
Not that i care mind,I'd just like to see the *ugly chick* win for once.
