Salisbury was very nice too

Quite big in Russia apparently, especially with GRU Agents (allegedly). ?

I don't really get the whole queuing to pay your respects to someone you've never met either. I suspect people get emotional because they project their own experience of loss onto the environment they're in and the whole thing becomes overwhelming.

I'm not disrespectful of Her Majesty - her dedication and service is legendary and will surely never be surpassed, but do I want to spend ten days in mourning - not really.

Each to their own I guess.

There's a good percentage of the people in the queue who are not there to pay their respects, but are there just so that they can say that they were.

Caught this on Facebook yesterday. In case you missed it...
