He is 98 years old. He’s had a good innings and a privileged life. It’s sad for his family.
He's in hospital, he's not dead unless you know something we don't.
I have friends who work at the Beeb who are having an unusually hectic day for this time of year. Make of that what you will.
Anybody would think we'd just had an election or were waiting for news about Brexit.
Its a bit weird they keep saying it was a "planned admission"- what, right before Christmas? I highly doubt that.
I don't think the normal rules apply when you are the D of E do they?
A planned admission can be an emergency, my c-section was an emergency but was still planned.
When I said Annus Horribilis, as it turns out, I of course meant Annus mirabilis. Compared with this year, that really was quite the breeze.
Seriously though, I think the year is ending on a sad note for many who have had it worse than the queen. Whaakari, the families of the two people killed in London recently and other things.
It saddens me that he's living on his own these days (without family I mean as opposed to staff).
I think he has a frequent visitor.
He’s had pernicious anaemia for years.
Is he a knid?
Charles and Camilla live in different houses- no-one thinks that is odd.
I'd think it was odd if they didn't...I think I'd want to.
More elderly couples seem to be living apart now people are living longer or because they need different care. My parents are in different care homes because they both need extremely different care and can't be in the same one.
