Mourners wishing to pay their respects to the late Queen will be able to view her coffin in Edinburgh from 5pm on Monday, September 12, it has been confirmed. Members of the public who wish to pay their respects have been warned they face long waits due to the anticipated demand. In addition to the official party, The King's Bodyguard for Scotland (Royal Company of Archers) and the Guard of Honour will flank the cortege. The outpouring of grief from citizens and visitors is touching and demonstrates the special relationship the city shared with the Queen. "Edinburgh's Books of Condolence have been opened online, at Central Library and across the city for citizens and visitors to pay their respects."
