The Queen will not have given a single thought to mundane events yesterday, however, she is a pragmatic lady & I don't think she would expect everything to stop because of this news. I can understand blanket coverage on the day of his funeral but let's face it the media will get their money's worth out of the next week. I'm with Shopps - the hunting, shooting & fishing brigade revolt me & nobody will ever convince me that chasing a terrified animal for miles then ripping it to pieces or blasting a panicking bird out of the air is sport. I am sorry for the Queen's loss & the fact that the man she loved so much had his final year overshadowed by family turmoil.
