Goodbye, Queen Elizabeth II

Yeah, that place out 'there'. Anything not really Cambodia related should go here.

We never know when, but it is certainly going to come to us all at some point, death, we are born with nothing and leave with nothing.
I know that some here don't support royalty, but I think the queen did some important work, I am a little sad of the situation. Forever RIP Queen Elizabeth.

That will be my only common point with The Queen.
I mean, between start & check-out, she sure did had the whole majestic package, and even managed to achieve some stuff, sweat for her country, and keep a polished rock'n'roll attitude of sorts.
So, quite a chapter ending, i mean, she sure was in the background of the fantastic evolution ok UK during all this solid piece of time she was there, so it's gonna leave a void in our imaginery view of UK, from a foreigner standpoint.
It's like removing the Eiffel tower kind of void, what images of Brits will we have in our thoughts now ? Nothing's gonna represent the country like her.
Also, when i'll think "Queen" from now on, it's gonna be either Daenerys Targaryen or the band popping in my head, which is gonna feel weird, but at least remains British.

Long live The Queen !

You better grab some before Charles’ coronation, coz after that they’re his.
