10 Years On

10th anniversary of Diana’s death marked. Maybe I’m in the minority here, but I didn’t care then and I especially don’t care now… I just find the whole near canonisation of her memory to be, frankly, shit. Funny how her son called her “the best mother in the world,” I guess he forgets she died while out partying in Paris with her boyfriend while he was back in the UK with the rest of the Royal Family, thats motherly behaviour right there…

    I remember turning on the TV the morning after she died. I was in England at the time, so it was the BBC, or ITV, or Sky coverage – there weren’t all the trackers and stuff you see on American news is my point – and I sat there for 5 minutes while they talked about a royal death and blah, blah, blah, never getting to the actual scoop, with my fingers crossed that it was the Queen.

    On a related note – I once touched Princess Diana. My parents took us to somewhere she was going to be and put me at the front of the barricade she would be passing by, gracing the peasants with her presence and she shook, or touched my hand. I was terribly impressed at the time, yet once I was old enough to actually think about it all, and remembered it had once occurred, I wasn’t so impressed and now feel slightly ashamed by it all.
