Royal Family gathers at Balmoral amid concerns for Queen's health

Sad, but not unexpected news.

I had a bad feeling reading the morning reports on her health.

The Queen is dead Long live the King

RIP your majesty

Shocked, even though it must have been anticipated - just as it was with my own mother who shared the same birthday and just a year older than HRH

Rest in Peace your Majesty.

Long live the King.

Sadly it comes to all of us.

In a volatile and "interesting times" world she was the rock of tradition. Ruling monarch of the British Commonwealth for our entire lives. She carried out her duties with dignity and grace, often in the face of vicious Press campaigns against her Family.

All the flags are at half mast down here.

Her chapter in History is closed, and she is now at rest with her predecessors.

The Queen is Dead, Long Live The King.

Best of the lot of them. RIP to the Queen and the WW2 generation along with her. Profound sadness over what is lost, maybe forever.
