    Yes so sad about the children. Hopefully the 4th boy will pull through.

    So sad at any time of year but in the run up to Christmas it is devastating for their families.

    Awful for the poor families, but also for those who saw it unfold and those who tried to rescue them.  The kind of thing you never forget.
  • I can't get my head round the fact that the youngest is 6, what on earth was he doing out without adults but just in the company of other children. My eldest grandson is 6 and there is no way he would be allowed out without and adult

    Surely if he had he wouldn't have been out on the ice in the first place unless his parents are a bit dim 
    I presumed he was out with the three boys who have died
