This is an enormous bore. It’s already smashed the boreometer.

And there's a long way to go yet.

You would have had a point 30 years ago before satellite TV, streaming etc
Now it's purely choice if you watch it or not
And it is a significant event in our history, which deserves the coverage
I remember the Diana coverage
You literally couldn't get away from it for weeks

Interesting the planning, practice and resources that go into burying one person.

Also interesting to see the lack of planning, preparation and resources in dealing with a Pandemic.

for once i agree wiv iris. only boring people are bored. only time ive ever suffered from it is when incarcerated. if you rely on the idiots magic lantern for your amusement you are a bore-in-waiting.

havent looked at one for over 10 years. go for a walk, read a book, try, and fail(1.01) to get your leg over. play tennis, or poofball or swim in the lido(thats me), whatever. thers a million better things to do, but surfing the interweb is not one of them. its the only thing worse than the telly. sitting around waiting to be entertained or amused is a dismal lifeless and brainless existence.
