Very sad for all involved!

Further to this, i pass this site regularly and noted that the formation of the now tradional roadside shrine had not occured on this occasion

All we have is a single,solitary bunch of flowers attached to the gate of the disused factory where the death occured.

Contrast this with the mounds of flowers,toys and other bric a bric which gets heaped around trees or lamposts where some scroat has crashed either his own or a stolen car whilst TWOCing/drinking/racing or whatever.

I must say that I am not in favour of "shrines" but they are now common place. I think Lady Di sparked it off.
