Funnily enough this is one of the, "I remember exactly where I was and what I was doing, when", moments. Along with J F Kennedy & John Winston Lennon.
43 years ago today I was in Warwickshire on summer camp with the Lancashire Fusiliers Army Cadet Corp. Stuffing straw into a pallyass ( large bag ) to make my matress. :)

With JFK, I was working on a farm in Gt Harwood near Blackburn and was pushing a large wheelbarrow full of Shi--manure up the yard.

when I heard the news about Lennon I was driving my Hotpoint van along Milnrow Road near to my home.:(

I don't include Diana as I was in bed listening to the news on the radio alarm.

I was sitting at home thinking "there go the TV schedules for the next week..." :mad:

Re: Who died...
 

Yep.........a white woman woman who did no one any harm dies and you think of the impact on the tv schedules but if a (suspected suicide bombing) racial minority member so much as stubs his or her toe you scream blue murder...says it all really..................sorry--did I say that out loud? ;) :D

Re: Who died...
 

Yes, you did. And I'll leave it there because, frankly that says it all.

Re: Who died...
 

You are right there m8........gotcha :D

Re: Who died...
 

Oh dear, I was going to leave it there, but I just have to add:

It is a pity her family and 2 youngs son could not brush it off so lightly

Re: Who died...
 

So many of you cannot count. A week Tuesday is the 16th.

Re: Who died...
 

huh huh huh :dmonk:

Re: Who died...
 

It's also a pity that our beloved media went against their own promises and would not let the princes grieve in peace.

I have to admit, that while (obviously) I felt sorry for Di's family (both the Royals and the Althorps), I personally found the media circus that surrounded her death both distasteful and offensive. But, that is Off topic.

Well, no, it's a bit difficult when your mother's death is all you see every time you turn on a television or pick up a newspaper for a week or more after the event.
