Pardon my cynicism and facetiousness, but I genuinely find it hard to understand why so many people are queuing for so long just for a brief glimpse of a coffin. I mean no disrespect to the former queen, but thousands of people are currently waiting for over twelve hours just to look at a box. I can frankly think of much better things to do with my time, and better ways to pay tribute to a dead monarch. It isn’t as if they are going to have any form of interaction or conversation with anyone once they get to the front of the queue. Having said that, at least London can now claim the record for the world’s longest conga line.
