Both are good. If you check Google�s Ngram Viewer, though, you�ll see that queuing only started to overtake queueing in the 1990s. A quick frequency comparison of the two in the British National Corpus would seem to bear this out. I wouldn�t fret too much over it; just choose the one you�re comfortable with and stick to it. Alex
