It feels very weird. Like most people in the UK I’ve only ever known a Queen. It’s very very weird having a bloke in the role and hearing the word King! Even if as a historian it’s hardly a surprise ;)
I’m also very much not a royalist, so I’m finding the whole automatic God Save The King response from some people very weird and feeling wrong so soon after the Queen died.
I think she did a grand job though. Still not a royalist!
Here in Dundee the cortège is going through the city tomorrow afternoon on its way to Edinburgh. All the main city buses are shutting down for 2 hours. The council and university have been looking for volunteer stewards. It’s all rather bizarre.
