I have to say, and I’m not a fan but Boris Johnson’s tribute on Instagram last night brought tears and just hearing him pay his tribute in The Commons, was fab. I know he had a lot more time to get to know her that Truss but it has feeling and love and humour to it 😊

Teresa May's tribute in Parliament also very touching.

As someone in parliament said (not sure if it was May) just can't imagine our country without her 💔

Funny as well! It’s been nice hearing these tributes from the people who met with her weekly because you hear things and new anecdotes you’ve not necessarily heard before.

Sophie Raworth sounds like she's very hoarse today. Didn't see her reporting yesterday but sounds like she's struggling a bit with it today.

Flightradar just gave the alert about his flight.

Should be arriving in about 15 minutes.

Oh and the Royal Family website has been updated as much as possible and has an online book of condolence should anyone wish to sign it, along with updates.

Luckily no one has been disrespectful at work today. Still got a few hours left mind you, but everyone seems quiet today. Not many customers calling in either. I have her on my mind a lot today. ❤

Same at mine, I went this morning to reflect and sign the book of condolence ❤ Still doesn’t seem real this morning, so very sad. Like any death that you know will happen - just a big shock when it does.

I’ve always collected newspapers from special days and seems I’m not the only one - only one copy left of The Times at our local supermarket at 10am!

Is anyone watching the King travelling through London? It must be surreal to be one of those cars and turn around to see the new King passing though!

still can’t get used to hearing or saying King

Nicholas Witchell saying "no, Prince William isn't the Duke of Cornwall" to Sophie Raworth. Fancy telling the Royal Family that considering their website, their Instagram and their twitter account states he is?!

They just said they believe he is headed to Buckingham Palace, so another huge moment seeing him arrive there for the first time as King
