Mourning the loss of our Monarch. A Monarch who has been on the throne throughout our whole lives for most of us.

Flowers have been laid all over the country, sports, the arts and other celebratory events have been cancelled, and the day of her funeral has been declared a Bank Holiday.

 On Monday, the country will join together to celebrate the life and passing of a Monarch like no other, a mother, grandmother and great-grandmother, and a women who lead a life of service that was thrust upon her with a small wave of her hand and a happy smile.

Rest in peace Queen Elizabeth II
