A tad different to my Aunt who lived in Australia in 1954 and had a cine camera and took some wonderful colour film of the Britannia arriving in Sydney Harbour and then Her Majesty & Prince Phillip arriving in a motor boat at Circular Quay (now donated to the British Library) After reading that, I had to go and listen to Family Snapshot by Peter Gabriel.

Martin Hutchinson	I agree totally. RIP Queeen Elizabeth. GOD SAVE THE KING!!
JK2006	Well I thought it was tremendous, moving, incredible skill in rehearsal and performance, good readings - I felt so sorry for the family particularly Charles (he's almost my age - I couldn't have stood as long and behaved so impeccably). And the pall bearers. Imagine the terror? Camilla is going to be great as Queen; well done singing along to God Save The King. I challenge any country on earth to do spectacle as well (in fact friends in Morocco watching it are amazed).
