Queen Elizabeth the second died last Friday.

She’s currently lying in state in London. The queue to see her coffin is currently a couple of miles long. I don’t think you can go twice or perhaps you can (if you forgot to say something the first time around or if you left your coat I suppose). Her state funeral is on Monday and everything is closing for the day. A national bank holiday. No school, no work, nothing will be open.

My kids tell me it feels like lockdown is coming. It’s only for a day I say, it’s ok, the world will continue at breakneck speed the next day.

Books of condolence have been opened around the United Kingdom and online to write in.

I’d rather draw a picture. But then, I always did.

Even through lockdown and beyond.
