Is anyone gonna watch? This is something that you may only get to see one time in your life.

Most networks are going to start the telecast at about 5am Eastern time. PBS will start much earlier, simulcasting the BBC.

That crown is heavy. Charles will need an assist to stand up.

God save the King.

I turned the box to BBC at 4:20 am. Forgot it was the day for Charlie to ascend to a servant of God. Coincidently Charlie was just leaving the Palace. I was struck by how much and how many of the horses in the procession misbehaved. Most notably the first one from the coachman on the right.

The “rod of equity”?!?

[NautiNurse]

That is what I thought I heard. What did you hear?

Coronation Chair, 1300-1301. Otherwise known as St. Edward’s Chair, it is another ancient artifact used at the moment of crowning. Standing 6 feet 9 inches tall, it was made at the request of Edward I to house the Stone of Scone, also known as the Stone of Destiny – the inauguration stone of Scottish kings – after he captured the Scottish crown and sceptre in 1296. Made of Baltic oak, it is decorated with patterns of animals, foliage and birds on a gilt background. Painted on its back is the figure of a King with his feet resting on a lion. Westminster Abbey has described the chair as "one of the most precious and famous pieces of furniture in the world" and says it is in "remarkable condition" given its age. Despite this, it has undergone conservation work ahead of the ceremony. The royal couple will use refurbished Chairs of Estate for the early parts of the ceremony and the Queen Consort’s coronation, while Throne Chairs will be used for the enthroning and homage.

I watched the crown placed on Chuck’s cranium. He can barely see under it. How much does that crown weigh? Is it the same crown his mum wore?

[Bulwyf]

Lol no. Nobody gives a damn about more evil criminals being put in power to help usher in the nwo. Screw that.

[Bulwyf]

Amen. Our savior.

[NautiNurse]

The crown weighs about five lbs. It was sized for Charles’ head.

[Bulwyf]

Have you lost your ever loving mind?
No wonder Aussie land is so cucked now.

[NautiNurse]

Camilla crowned. Give her five points for balancing the crown during her curtsy to Charles.

“It is intended that Mrs Parker Bowles should use the title the Princess Consort when the prince accedes to the throne.”

And the Met was rounding up protesters this morning.

I’m not doubting you at all, just hadn’t heard reference to it before.

It sounds both ancient (as an official measure of length, perhaps?) and sadly all too modern: I imagine Chuck enjoying the opportunity to lash commoners with his DEI stick!

[naturalman1975]

It is the Rod of Equity and Mercy.

“a man will dedicate himself to the service of God”

[peggybac]

Kate is beautiful and her smile lights up the whole room.

[naturalman1975]

No, I have not lost my mind.

I have the good fortune to know the King. Unlike the people who like hurling abuse at the man.

[mewzilla]

God save the UK from the king.

[SaveFerris]

I think Charles is a globalist tool and yet another symbol of the declining Western world.

I don’t dislike the guy per se but I have no interest, either, in this circus 🎪.

I felt the same way about “the royal wedding” oh so long ago.

While I’ve never subscribed to Charles being the Antichrist his Islamic views only further the coming One-World Religion that will be a coming reality.

And this is foundational to the Abraham Accords. Whatever final form that takes, it will unleash something the majority of the world mocks and scoffs.
