Some may say why start a new thread as it is discussed in two others maybe.,..
For me, just feels like this should be respect to those who went away like the discussion in the Holiday thread, work and earned a break away, through no choice of their own and we not be returning....
No politics please for once
This weekend has confirmed even further how short, fragile society and life can be.....
RIP Guys and Girls xx

I hope your families and friends find peace
God bless you all and rest in peace
( anyone here thinking of travelling to Egypt, Tunisia, Turkey etc please think again think of who you could leave behind how they would cope and if there is somewhere else you could go instead)
I was in Egypt last month and it felt odd going there knowing the risk. Watching the news over the weekend has shaken me up massively as I fear the worst for this country now.
The police and intelligence have foiled many attacks and it only takes one to slip through the net. Terrifying.
RIP to those killed.
Disagree with NLA. You can't let these bastards win. If I were going to one of the 'high risk' countries, I would be damn sure their actions wouldn't stop me going. solidarity and all that.
My wife however.............
It's not about letting people win it's about making sure your family win and are safe
Rip to all those poor victims and their families.
Rip to those poor innocent people.
There is a way to assist in reducing the strangle hold held by isis across these countries and that is to reduce or remove the money they make through tourism , I accept that this is not the answer but if all western tourists stopped going to these countries then those countries would in turn be forced to deal with that head on , and look inside, there are many places to go as an alternative that are less of a risk and just as nice to visit
It's a shocking sad and devastating situation we face today
Last year, in a private viewing in a museum somewhere, they were ordered to hit the floor, face down, by two men holding machine guns. It was only thanks to their two Egyptian-speaking guides that they talked them out of whatever they were thinking of doing.
Despite that little event last year, she goes back in October/November this year. I'm trying to remain cool about it but seeing sh*t like this going on in the North African region, its not hard to worry.
I hope your pals parents come home safe @cazo
To those responsible, both directly & indirectly, may you never sleep peacefully again
