Does anyone know if there’s a special ceremony for the Queen? Haven’t seen any press coverage since her death

[ElectedOnThursday]

News outlets seem to be very quiet.

I think someone is winding you up. Egg and onion sandwiches aren't a thing, surely!

Sadly, they are.

Clinkymonkey, you’ve taken this too far now - egg and onion sandwiches 😮 - not a thing!

I'm off to the bank today, then going to mow the lawn then hang my undies out on the line.

That's not going to be a problem is it?

I have no idea 🤷‍♀️
I'll see if there's anything in the news later. I'm just getting ready to do the school run and my usual Monday morning supermarket shop.

I'm only telling you what I heard! Personally, I'm more inclined to think cucumber sandwiches, but then I'm always accused of taking it too far ...

Totally missing point ... egg and onion sandwiches? 🤢

Re the corgis - I did have to turn off the radio in the car when I heard Adrian Chiles say he was going to be speaking to the lady who owns a corgi that fathered one of the Queen’s corgis

it must be a v slow news week or Crufts is on the horizon

Also I do actually eat egg mayo with chopped spring onion 🥪, I never realised this was not normal

It's not as bad as the bloke who was interviewed by BBC about his dog who... since the Queen died... 'barks funny'. He thinks the dog is barking 'Queen'.

I kid you not.

Could not agree more on this! We’ve not had a PM for months and now they have recess AGAIN. It’s an absolute joke!

DEAD? I don't think so. I've checked some postage stamps and she's still there.

Apparently channel 5 are showing the funeral.

This is good to know 👍🏻 wouldn't want to miss it accidentally

Well ive got a Dr's appointment today i had a real faff getting, first i phoned them up, "you are 13th in the queue..", then gave my details and eventually got a phone appointment for 10 days later so had to change my day off at work as no privacy there to talk...had the phone appointment but Dr wants to see me so gave me an appointment today...

What a bloody faff getting an actual appointment with a dr now.

Thank god at least its taken seriously and would never get cancelled.

Is London Bridge down?!???!?

I like an egg sandwich. I like a cheese and onion sandwich. I have never thought to have egg and onion but I'm keen on the concept.

This can't be right, I haven't heard anything. We'd have got a letter or something.

I think you're making things up OP, she's definitely still on the £5 note.

I'd check a higher denomination but I don't have one, good job the government are working hard in the cost of living crisis!

Yeah you have to really look hard to search out the info, but there have been a couple of small pieces on the BBC website. Apparently the royal family want to keep the funeral pretty private and not distract from all the issues the government is grappling with, but they're planning to release a photo or two after the ceremony.

My mum told me her TV Times is FULL of stuff about the Queen. So maybe have a look in there?

Egg and onion sandwiches is on learn Dutch Duolingo, so it must be true...

Apparently it is just an empty box, it is the latest Tracey Emin art installation.

Supposedly something going on in that London but haven't heard anything on the news. Anything on social media?

The Queen in the cloud, crochet postbox toppers and Paddington bear in stones went down well. Quick someone make a courgi out of lots of pasta and find a couple of kids to take a photo with it. Maybe sprinkle some water and shine a bright light to get a rainbow over it too.
