Think of it as a Royal equivalent of windows updates. There is even a big fuck off queue going down from Southwark to Westminster abbey. I'm not joking it's 18 hours of your life you're not getting back. So what do I do. I decide to go down and have a look at the said queue, not pay my respects mind, but just have a look and see what its all about.
Got off at Westminster and walked along the river, I did see them on the bridge, queueing, so at least I can say I saw them, but there was so much more out there that was interesting.
For one there was a big Socialist Wanker Party presence there. Tried real hard to get a pic of someone holding a Hoes sign (it should've said homes but the angle cut the M out of it). But had to content myself with a nice shot of the London Eye. 
What you don't see up there is the amount of police and security detail out there. This is one place you
do not want to fuck around and find out. We had a look in Whitehall gardens with their statues and walked down to Trafalgar Square, which is closed off.
Finally got down to Soho and had a look around at the record shops as the arcade was closed for a function. We got to see the owners dog at Sounds of The Universe, which was rather empty. Finally on the tube back to the suburbs we saw a golden retriever on the floor with two ladies. It's their first tube trip, and they are 2. Thoroughly nice dog.
