Some are these people are oddballs. BBC news interviewing some woman who’s taken her Mums ashes in an urn to queue up and view the coffin. Because her Mum “loved the Queen”.
My late Dad loved ITFC, however, I’m not taking him with me to Sheffield Wednesday this Saturday. |  | | |  |

I walked past it yesterday from the National Theatre to Blackfriars. Wasn't sure what it was for at first, given that's a fair distance from Westminster. Dunno how much further it went past Blackfriars as I was getting on a train there, but I concluded they're all as mad as a barrel of monkeys.
Not like you can even see her. I hate queuing at the best of times but queuing 16+ hours to look at a wooden box for a few seconds? Bonkers. |
Whisper it quietly, but they won't even see a wooden box. It's draped in a Royal Standard. Could be anything under there.
There's a whole lot of projection of grief going on, and I get that, but, to be honest, most people in the queue would be better off spending the time showing someone who is alive that they love them. |  | | |

We went yesterday. It was incredibly moving once you got in Westminster Hall. We queued from 8.30am and got in at 7.45-ish. I'll do a report tomorrow.
I'm glad i never saw you. Would have made it feel like a home game if you'd stood two rows in front of me! I'm off to bed in a tic as we got the last train home and didn't get to sleep at all last night (Paula's working tomorrow so she's got today off as well). |  |

I haven’t seen anyone that did this that hasn’t felt the same way. I look forward to hearing about it when you’ve recovered! |  | | |

People are doing this for all sorts of reasons. While it’s not something I’ve chosen to do, I respect the choice of people that have, whatever the reason. I understand it. I’ve found it quite moving to see too.
It’s easy to be cynical, mock, patronise, tear apart and rage, but now and again there’s a time to give it a rest for a little while. For me, this is such a time. | | | |

12 hrs of queuing can do strange things to a person.
Miss Slave took news of Warky's pilgrimage badly!! | |

Ha, well I wouldn't have been in front of you if you were in the queue. You'd never catch me doing that all day! |  |

Lol. I’m sure a bit of ‘how’s your father’ is exactly what she would have wanted. |  |
