“And AFAIK Charles has never smoked.”
And he’s “greener” than Kermit.
Hey Chuckie,
It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God.
Hebrews 10:31
So yeah, I bet he’s not doing well.
Elizabeth's sister smoked like a chimney, and died at 71, but she'd been in bad health for years even before.
“Could be a total coincidence but certainly worth remembering..”
Maybe they each got the bad sushi roll.
The Western King lays dying
The Western son is rising
The bearded man with dark mate
Mourns his mistakes, crying.
Thats either Nostradamus or Burma Shave...can’t recall atm..
I hate to break the news to you but all heads of state have “canned” funeral plans prepared in advance because of all the pomp and circumstance involved and the international customs and protocols that must be observed.
Wow! Edward VII got go be king for 9 years after his mother’s lengthy reign.
Charles III might not get even 3.
Considering neither of the first two King Chucks are particularly well remembered (one was beheaded, the other was deposed but later re-hired), it never bode well that he chose to be crowned using his birth name.
He’ll probably be best remembered as “King Charles the Divorced,” since he’s the only king who was divorced (much less divorced and remarried) when crowned that the UK, Great Britain, or England ever has had.
Heads of state are not the only ones whose deaths are prepared for ahead of time, and other interests than governments prepare for them.
A couple of times, news organizations have accidentally released false news of the deaths of celebrities, apparently while editing/updating the information they have prepared.
They tend to keep many obituary articles ready to go.
And?
Did you find this quote; or, did you make this up? Either way, spot on.
Charles wanted kingship decades ago but mom hung on and on and on and on yet Charles got his wish at an old age.
A better man would have passed his spot to his oldest son for the good of England. But Charles is a child.
I was going to post about that horse.

That isn’t how succession in a monarchy works; it would degrade the entire process and the ideals upon which it is based.
Being Queen Regnant or King Regnant isn’t something you can just ‘put down’, if you have any respect for the institution at all.
Edward VII got ten years.
