Whatever you may think of the Royal Family, you may be hard pressed not to find the moments in history since last Thursday to be impressive. People are watching this all over the world.
Don't think there are too many other countries in the world that do events like this, like we do.
Centuries of history, cannot imagine the death of a President of a British Republic having anything like this.
Whatever you may think of Prince Charles, the bloke must be under so much pressure, he's lost both his parents in the past 18 months and now every move is being watched by the world, where he has to go all over the place being publicly on display.
I bet all he wants to do is lock himself away with a bottle of wine, a big bag of chocolate and have a cry.
Saw the video of him losing his temper yesterday with a dodgy pen, felt so sorry for him when he said 'I hate this'

I like the works of Edward Elgar myself.
Did you learn of them as a kid |
Nimrod, the Enigma Variations. Pomp and Circumstance.
Played them In West Glamorgan Youth Orchestra.

A what.Royal houe of Wales.
How far does that go back
Is this character for real.
Ive not counted but I reckon at least 12 threads have been started by him this week after the death of Queen. You cannot be an Indy of that inclination ,especially with his love of all things Irish republican, and not activately hate a monarch whose family oversaw the partition of Ireland. The hate on social media from the Irish is shocking. |
How far back, nearly 1000 years, all the way back to 1039CE
To think that Kilky used to berate poster for being stuck in the 70's when he regularly opines about "Wales" but the country he preaches about didnt exist at the time he rants about which is over 600 years back.
The lack of self awareness is astonishing. Neither can see (or just refuses to see) what they are. | |

Nimrod , the way its starts, with its undulating melody, building up slowly to its climax and its association with Remembrance Sunday always gets me and I never get tired of listening to it .The background story is well worth reading and there's an episode on BBC Sounds Soul Music dedicated i to it | |

I just find the whole thing incredibly odd, not that I've put the TV or radio on much in an attempt to avoid as much as possible.
An event that seems fitting for 1722 but with the added selfie cameras. | |

Why did the nation not exist ?
If people lived on these lands and spoke their language then Cymru existed ?
Or is there some committee somewhere who decides these things ? |  |

Did you see King Charles speaking with Sinn Fein leaders this very week ?
They exchanged pleasantaries.
They shook hands.
They have the strength to move on and focus on the last 20 years of peace.
I recommend that you try it OLH.
There is nothing to fear except fear itself.

Each to their own I suppose , some find it odd quoting or getting angry about events 800 years . | |

Yeh just not for me, but i suppose with my beliefs i am not their target audience exactly haha.
I tend to skip over a lot of that, don't know too much about it and sometimes it isn't greatly relevant to the original point. | |

Piano, drums and violin, along with the church organ in my parents chapel when I was a kid
Shipped our family piano up a couple of years ago. Probably 40 odd years old now, still plays nicely.
Revelry bought a ukulele, going to try to teach myself it.

This sort of thing can happen quite frequently. If you’re standing there still for a long time the blood pools in your feet causing you to faint. He’ll be fine as long as he didn’t whack his head on the way down. |  |
