Similarly the Royal l Navy regularly practice for royal or state funerals with the gun carriage, which is drawn by Royal Navy personnel.A stalwart with a sharp tongue. RIP
20-25 years ago, my friends sister was a producer at the BBC. She was involved in preparing his, (and other members of the family) obituaries way back then, no wonder the TV channels are prepared.
I remember she found it funny gaining access to Buck house in her beat up Fiesta.

It’s not unexpected is it, and it was only for 12 hours on the day of the Duke of Edinburg’s death assuming you were up until midnight that is.It's normal for the media to have pre-prepared obituaries and tributes for prominent dignitaries, and keep them updated - I do find the repetitive wall-to-wall coverage excessive despite admiring the man immensely.
I watched last nights tribute and surprising how little I knew about his family background and early life. Plus in the mid fifties he was raising concerns over the receding glaciers. Like you I did not regret my time watching.Just finished watching the ITV tribute to D o E thus ending my Saturday morning. Not a waste of time but a truly interesting insight to a man, a legend ,who with The Queen represented our Country on a worldwide scale. He included 20 visits to Australia amongst thousands more. The history lesson for this old dog was welcome and enjoyed. A great man. I can say with a resounding NO, I have not wasted my time! Very shortly I shall listen to the 41 gun salute and raise a glass at the end.
It’s a new concept in weatherproofing. Supposedly an improvement on IP 66 as the residence time of any water ingress is zero, and any residual moisture dries out as soon as the sun comes out. The door provides even greater electrical integrity and safety and discourages children or livestock from probing the internals, and it is auto cooled, sensing the need to open when the wind blows.Is that your current home EHU?
At least it is nicely earthed 😱It was the fourth cable that threw me
