The Queen is dead.

[Notty]

The King is visiting Cardiff today, firstly at Llandaff Cathedral which is about half a mile from my house. There have been road closures all week and those who live near the cathedral were told to move their cars at 9am Monday and they had to be gone by 10am !!!! They have laid new tarmac, painted anything that doesn't move, and filled potholes that were celebrating their 5th anniversaries !! strange the council don't do anything the rest of the year !
Not going to queue to see the new King, will watch on TV as Mrs Notty has been bedridden for the last 5 weeks with a slipped disc

One of the reasons the queen liked to go to Balmoral was that it didn't always smell of wet paint, she had a whole army of painters and decorators walking backwards in front of her, (been there done that), I've known lads who had to paint grass green during royal visits.
