RIP Queen Elizabeth. She has been an impressive monarch who will be hard to replace.
I hope Charles III will be better than the 2 previous models. Charles I got his head removed through stupidity. Charles II may have been the 'Merry Monarch', but he was always a political stoolie for his French cousins. Not being able to provide an heir is also a black mark in a family business. That leaves Charles plenty of opportunity to make the third chance the success.
In April I discovered I was Queen Elizabeth's 6th or 7th cousin, I don't remember which. That was pretty weird: I don't consider myself very special at all. I'm an even closer relative to Princess Di, but ...
Just a piece of trivia.
