And suddenly those waiting patiently near Lambeth Bridge to bid farewell to Britain’s longest-serving monarch saw pizza boxes arrive.

Thousands of people are queuing to say their last goodbyes to Queen Elizabeth in London, in the rain and in the cold.

And suddenly those waiting patiently near Lambeth Bridge to say goodbye to Britain’s longest-serving monarch saw boxes of pizza arrive, British media reported.

The treat to the crowd was a kind gesture from his archbishop, and more specifically the charity Feeding Britain.

The track was also accompanied by hot drinks.

A woman waiting in the queue, wearing a waterproof jacket, told Sky News: ‘The Archbishop’s charity brought some pizza and hot drinks. I’m very tired and wet.”

The worst-case scenario foresees waiting in the queue for up to 30 hours, so the authorities call on citizens to be sure they can withstand the inconvenience before taking a place in the queue.

Anyone arriving will be given a colored and numbered wristband so they can leave the queue briefly to find a toilet or something to eat before returning.

The government will use Twitter to keep citizens informed of where the end of the queue is, and there will also be updates from the BBC.
