You guys never cease to amaze me, thank you for thinking of me, no its not too near me. Terrible tragedy isn't it. Just shows you never know what can happen. The local councillors and business's are all rallying together to help out and support is in place. Manchester is very good in times of crisis, we have had lots of them with bombs etc. Im sure the Salvation army will be out in force as they have a strong group in Manchester.Clearing the junk to travel light

Phew. LOL ! I never knew anybody from Manchester before, or anybody else in cities down south, so I never paid attention to things like this apart from thinking "oh poor people, thats terrible". But now I know lots of you from this forum.
