Her pony 😞

TokyoSushi · 19/09/2022 15:48

Do you think that's one of her ponies that's come to say goodbye? 😭

Thank you OP. What a momentous and moving day. I hope we can keep these threads; I'd like to read them at leisure.
Really they should go into classics. They are a lovely 'alternative commentary' on the day. The Mumsnet commentary. 💗

I agree, I’ve found answers here that I couldn’t get from the commentary or by googling.

Lonelycrab · 19/09/2022 15:48

Thanks for the threads. Truly historic day. Will remember this for years to come.

Is the pony called Katie? I think she might be...

RubyJam · 19/09/2022 15:48

The hill looks quite steep !

Northernlurker · 19/09/2022 15:48

Love the pony! That's got me again

Horsemad · 19/09/2022 15:48

😭 Emma, her beloved pony. ♥️

SuperCamp · 19/09/2022 15:48

Is the hearse driver a regular undertaker, or a royal chauffeur, or other?

She’s called Emma.

ThunderstomsAreComing · 19/09/2022 15:49

Emma the pony did it for me 🥲

ApolloandDaphne · 19/09/2022 15:49

The marching and the music is very hypnotic.

TokyoSushi · 19/09/2022 15:49

As long as they don't bring out the dogs! I don't think I could cope!

Neverplayleapfrogwithaunicorn · 19/09/2022 15:49

Emma the pony has totally wrecked me!

SoupDragon · 19/09/2022 15:49

GeorgeorRuth · 19/09/2022 15:47

I'm finding the rocking motion of the procession quite mesmerising and soothing.

Particularly when they are marching on the spot

Knittingmonster · 19/09/2022 15:49

I just sobbed when I saw the pony

TokyoSushi · 19/09/2022 15:49

Oh Emma. That's even better 😉

Butitsnotfunnyisititsserious · 19/09/2022 15:50

Emma just did me in 😭 I've been holding back tears for this second part but seeing the pony made me go 😭

CaveMum · 19/09/2022 15:50

Breyer once made a collectible model of Emma www.breyerhorses.com/products/carltonlima-emma-fell-pony

notlyndasnell · 19/09/2022 15:50

OMG the carpet of flowers either side!

toomuchlaundry · 19/09/2022 15:50

Is there another horse watching in this bit by the flowers?

MumofSpud · 19/09/2022 15:50

If there are any corgis I won't be able to cope!

MrsTimRiggins · 19/09/2022 15:50

What a woman our queen was, to carry on riding until she did.dear Emma, what a special pony.

Knittingmonster · 19/09/2022 15:51

The poor guards arms must be killing. Marching with your arms reversed for that amount of time with your arm bent back must ache

DontTrustThisPoster · 19/09/2022 15:51

I think this is really bringing home to so many that aside from being the monarch and a mother, she was her own person who had interests and loved things, just like anyone else. Emma, what a beautiful addition to the procession.
