What Were You Doing When You Heard the News of Queen Elizabeth's Passing?
Ask a Question
It’s nearly a year since Queen Elisabeth passing , can you remember what you were doing a year ago when you heard . It was my birthday and was out for a meal when it was announced to the restaurant where were you ?
I honestly can't remember, sitting at home I think, but was overwhelmed with sadness and shed many tears that day.
Can’t say I remember where i was but can’t believe it’s been a year already. I liked the queen, she did a good job, but i do think the royal family should be phased out
jam45 yeah we all have differing opinions and that’s what I’m saying about the whole “they bring x amount of money in through tourism” we have no concrete proof either way. Even if they did become less powerful I’m fairly sure the big buildings would never become private property. Most likely they would be like other royal houses abroad and just become tourist attractions.
A year wow don't know where that has gone I remember I just got home and was doing the dinner when I got a notification on my phone
We were at home that day and my partner kept saying this isn't going to end with good news, many tears over the next few days, such sadness.
I know i also felt very sad during that week, it felt as if the world had changed, and i am not a supporter of royalty, the Queen was an exception
The only other time i felt anything close to this was for an ex member of royalty , when Diana died
I was at home. I remember I had visitors and I was following it as they kept saying on the news she was ‘under the doctor’ but not really any more information and then the next day she passed.
I think about the queen from time to time. I remember how sombre the mood was the next day as I travelled for work. The Queen was like the nation's grandmother
I was working in my daughters pub at the time but before the world was informed she had died regulars were saying she was already dead. I told them they were not being nice.
Living my life... While I don't wish loss of life on anyone, her passing had no impact on me.
I remember seeing on the news journalist outside balmoral & gathered it wasn't good. I was sad to hear of her passing, like I am anyone's. I felt for the family having to publicly greive but I can't say I was deeply effected tbh.
House sitting for my mum whilst she was on holiday in Turkey. I was in living room whilst my mum was in the glorious sun next to a pool
