Yes, and to see OJ during his law enforcement career and his turn to the darkside on his ex-wife. Not to say it was right but I understand.

I apologize for sounding crude, however how did this manage to be 11 pages without a single IWNHI?

You know she’s only head of state right? Her position is ceremonial and a tether to England’s past. She doesn’t govern
True, but it seems like a waste of a frick ton of tax money to keep a monarchy

The monarchy and its various holdings bring in far more money than it receives.

Brought a tear to my eye. I'm sorry, if you don't cry at Churchill's funeral, you're not a man as far as I'm concerned. Given that he was half American and one of only eight people granted an honorary American citizenship he had this glorious tune played at his funeral: Battle Hymn of the Republic
I remember watching this live with my parents

Harry to travel alone to Scotland with doctors concerned for Queen’s health -
MetroUK
Don’t have any clue how reliable that is as a source, but FOX just confirmed that Harry arrived solo in Aberdeen.

This would be Operation Unicorn because she's in Scotland.

She might already be dead
Probably want to let the family grieve before the media onslaught

Correct…. It’s similar to LSU football in that while it isnt a ‘neccessity’ per se, it brings in and distributes multiple millions of pounds , mostly becuase of the entire tourism niche it creates and sustains.. There are tons of people who have traveled to England and planned trips around visiting Buckingham Palace and the like, especially when the weddings take place .

I'm flying to London this afternoon. Will be interesting to be there during this time - please please don't cancel the EPL games this Saturday...I think the Queen would want them to be played

But Queen Elizabeth's mother's name was also Queen Elizabeth.

RAF plane that landed at Aberdeen was carrying William, Andrew, Edward and Sophie, not Anne —my mistake, she was already in Scotland. They loaded into cars and drove past helicopter, so may be driving to Balmoral. It’s about a 1.5-hour drive (I thought longer). I’m presuming choppers grounded due to weather.
Daily Mail reporting that Harry is traveling alone to Balmoral while that woman stays behind in London due to “change in plans.”

It’s more than just tourism. The Crown Estate has holdings in commercial properties, agricultural lands, shorelines/seabeds, mines, forest lands, etc. The vast majority of these profits go directly to HM Treasury.
