Her Majesty's Funeral Cortege

[siglaz]

I see seven vehicles excluding the motorcyclist at the front, and I realise Princess Anne is in the second car. Who are the occupants of the trailing five cars? I am guessing mostly various security details but could there be also other officials who are pertinent to the Scottish part of the journey?

Ahh, right. To remain part of the commonwealth. And there’s me thinking she wants to sever ties completely. Thank you, Corby.

// Six hours seems a long time when every slip road and junction is closed for them. //

the route was somewhat roundabout - it took more than an hour just to get to Aberdeen, plus there were events along the way at Ballater, Aberdeen, Dundee and Perth.

A 45-minute lunch and loo break took place at Brecin Castle and then another break in Dundee. I guess a change of drivers was also necessary

Was Princess Anne in the cortege or did she travel by helicopter?

[Hazlinny]

In the cortege, Ellie
