    Two days of sickly saccharine royal bum-licking down, just two to go. Come on, we can do it...

    I trust you are eating breakfast or dinner.
    Or snack lunch in the hall.

    Isn't there a NO GOG rule on these fora?

    Loving all the anti Royal sentiment the last couple of days that I’ve seen. What with this and also watching all the people gagging for it, finding it hilarious. The pro and anti brigades are both as amusing as each other. Makes me chuckle.

    If you don’t like it ignore it, if you do like it don’t force it down people’s throats. Quite easy really.

    Will be interesting to see what Republican sentiment is after this and also when the Queen goes. Not quite as popular as they would lead you to believe. They’ll certainly pull out all the stops though when Queeny pops her clogs.

    The concert is quite good, shame about constant shots of the crowd and the "family".

    Our future king twice removed looks seriously unimpressed.

    Missed opportunity for the Lion King cast to belt out ‘I just can’t wait to be king’ there.

    If you don't work for a bank, isn't it a bit hypocritical to enjoy your bank holiday?

    The same difficulty of 'service' as being the son of a Middle Eastern oil baron, occasionally signing off forms on your yacht in the Algarve for the state oil company.

    I like socialising with my neighbours. I might rub a few of the posher ones up the wrong way, but generally I value the idea of a local community.

    We're here for each other and the anniversary of the Queen's coronation is a timely excuse to get together and bond.

    I don't give a **** about the Windsors, but as an excuse for a piss up, they'll do.

    Comically **** concert, complete with numerous videos of people thanking her for her service (obviously this has been focus grouped to hell and gets a better reaction than reigning over us plebs).

    Big fan of William lecturing us all about saving the planet when the shooting estates that they and their chums own could easily be turned from disasters for the environment and biodiversity into diverse habitats sequestering carbon if they were just prepared to give up blasting birds to pieces with shotguns.

    I thought that but we replayed it and decided it was the bad balance between her (too quiet) and the 15 odd backing singers carrying the song.

    Love Diana Ross.

    Is she still with the Supremes? Sorry, I’m not up with the latest pop news.

    Least everyone won't be getting wet going down the Thames on boats this time.

    They'll be getting wet doing whatever celebrations are on today.

    Our street party went well, with traditional Indian food, piles of home made sandwiches, Costco Sangria, pints of Tring Ridgeway and conversation between neighbours. If the Monarch is the only way we are able to get together then so be it. As the organiser of ours what’s App out - the soon to be Coronation street Party will be bigger and better.

    One of the many nice things about this weekend has been being able to turn on the TV and not hear somebody droning on about 'partygate'

    Hey, I like Rod Stewart. He has given us some of the best moments in pop, admittedly all of those more than 40 years ago. But this is a monumentally awful rendition of Sweet Caroline.

    I suspect he made it so bad because it's an England thing, and I can't blame him either.
