Well I think that confirms your obviously taking the piss with all of this because surely you dont believe in enforced mourning.
I would have gladly gone into work but as Is the same for millions of others across the country it was closed gates locked no entry. So I got on with my normal day, instead of pretending to cry for a billionaire women who has lived an amazing privileged life.
I'm sure she was very nice to the people who stood in a line and chatted to her for 30 seconds each, but I never met her and can certainly say she has never done anything for my benefit or had an impact on my existence in any way. So It was treated exactly the same as all the other funerals that happen every day that I have no knowledge of.
Sure the history and the spectacle will have been impressive and if it was going past my window I'd have probably had a look but I think i got the jist of it with a couple of pictures
