But I had no shortage of time to work it out given I was seated in Westminster Abbey by 7.30am.
I wondered how badly time would drag given it didn’t start until 11am.
By 9am, the choir and orchestra began to play, and that was your first treat of the day. The sound in the Abbey is astonishing.
I was seated with members of the House of Lords and various judges who were wearing their wigs, which made me wonder whether that was the reason the King chose May for the coronation.
