Wow that was a bit of a shock.

That old boot had been through a lot, rest in peace madam.

[Albert Schweitzer 10]

I liked her. She was the only one of the royals appearing human to me!

Tis a shame, tis indeed

[ralphwiggum 6]

I remember that one of Queen Mom's friend said she would break many hearts.(She was really sought after by guys back at her age).

Also, her husband propsed her 4 times AFAIK.

well, as i see it, she had that 'good grandma' image, and was popular that way.

my condolences for Queen mom and Queen Elizabeth for her recent losses

Would seem the Royals are dropping like flies

I predicted in this thread that she would die on March 21, 2004.   I was off by a 2 years and a week +/- a few days.

Queen who?

J/k, yeah it's pretty sad but ... death'll come take each one of us and you'll always need to be prepared to die or to lose someone. It doesn't matter if you like it or not, it'll happen one day..........be prepared.....

This might sound a bit freaky but it's the truth!!!

Rest in Peace your Majesty.

yeah well done mate, i predict the world will end soon and by soon i mean within the next coupla billion years......idiot

[Hilandor 1]

yes im sure she will be missed, just hearing on the news that she was the only royal that stayed in london during the war, saying that if the ordinary citizen can then she can. I think thats why she was a big hit with the older folks

sad day indeed tho =[[[

But I was off by 2 years, you're off by 2 billion years, therefore, I WIN.

Rest in Peace, Queen Mum.

In these days of the tabloid press sensationalizing everything royal, I think it's hard to find someone as respected and loved as she was. And I am sure she'll be missed by many.

There'll never be another like her....

*takes off his hat*

She's been through 2 world wars, a Russian revolution that changed the world and a whole lot more.

Rest in peace.

I dont mena to be rude, but I will feel sorry for the soldiers on royal duties.

I remember talking to the Welsh Guards when they were on it a few years back and they said they practise for it but for the real thing they have to stand by the coffin when it goes in its hole for 3 hours at attention.

They said they would all hae to buy incontenance pads becuase the hole thing lasts more than 9 hours.

If they dont eat or drink, they faint and if they do they shit or piss them selves.

Anyway its sad news just like when Dianna died, I can still remember that day perfectly

[Guest]

Really sorry to hear the news of her death. She was the only one among the British royals that I found likable.

[168GRN HPBT 0]

She was the only one I liked (she seemed to be Human along with Diana and here eldest)

Here in America we would like to express our sympathy and condolences.

Thanks to UK for sympathy and support after 9/11.

yes, but as with 9/11 within a few weeks we are gonna start making crude jokes about it and saying you deserved it

Queen Mother was a fine women indeed, unlike our archnemesis forum colleague Wobble.

yes i agree wobble but i also think that humour is a human mechanism that makes everyone deal with such things like what happened on sept11, enableing everyone to move on

Just in case anyone's interested, Dudley moore died the other day. Condolences to the queen mother, but Dudley gave more to me than she did.

R.I.P. Dudley...

[Placebo 29]

Yup Dudley will be sorely missed, him and Peter Cook gone, two comedic legends

[EveronVetsAgainstTheWar 1]

Here in the USA we don't have Queens or Kings.
