Can someone tag me when he will be speaking? I want to watch but my brain is awful and I will 100% forget.

He has arrived in London and is doing a small walkabout.
I’m watching on BBC world news on YouTube TV

Charles having to do a walk about has me torn.
1. He looks touched by the amount of people and smiling and I’m sure it helps a little
2. He just lost his mother. I know that she was 96 and they may not have been particularly close but it’s still a loss.

A guy I went to high school with breeds these dogs and he just posted that in the last 24 hours he’s gotten more inquiries than he usually gets in a whole year 😳 |

I know that she was 96 and they may not have been particularly close but it’s still a loss. It’s wild right? This is his job. He had known his whole life that when his mother dies he now has to WORK, just immediately. I can’t imagine it. I bet he really is surprised to have the people there and happy to see him. He’s not exactly popular. |

I'm not a fan of him, but all this that he's having to do in public so soon after losing a parent is a lot. Even when you know it's coming I don't think grief is ever easy. |

He’s not exactly popular. That is very true. I think it’s the quiet before the storm. Right now everyone there is in mourning and so he has that going for him for a little bit. |

My dad was sick my whole high school career. We were called so many times that it was his last night etc. and he held on for a while. I still was caught of guard and felt like a hole hit me when he passed even though I was also happy that he was finally out of pain. |

BBC is on here right? They just said what we did about knowing it was coming but it still being hard.
I am laughing at them saying Camila didn’t really think about the role.

I'm home with a sick kiddo so I'll be watching today. The god save the queen/king song gets me every time.
Selfishly, I hope everything will be back open by October 7th for our rescheduled trip. We were supposed to be there this week but would have been in Paris when she passed.

It did feel a little sudden since we just saw the Queen looking pretty good Tuesday. Then Thursday, gone. Even at 96, that feels sudden. I guess when you’re that old you’re body doesn’t have time for warnings.

I need camila to work on her posture I believe she has osteoporosis. It's one of her causes - I think her mother did too. |
