Poor Charlie.
I totally agree. My first memory of the Queen is the coronation when I was almost 6 years old, so I don't remember King George VI. My aunty sold her piano and bought a TV so she could ask all the family and neighbours round to watch it. I've watched the ceremony several times in colour since then and it always makes me emotional - she was so beautiful.
I just hope people won't be awful to Charles and Camilla on Coronation day, as it's a time for the country to come together - that's what the Queen would want.
When I read things like the statement from Buckingham Palace - "A statement from His Majesty the King at the time of the Queen's death" - it makes me think that it going to take me a while to get my head around that! His Majesty the King . . . I've known him as Prince Charles for 70 years!!
Rest in Peace Queen Elizabeth II.
