Paris

I am due to be the guest speaker at the Colchester advanced driving group tomorrow night.

Just had an email from the organiser to say that he will not be there as his son was one of those killed at the music concert in Paris on Saturday night.

I cannot even begin to imagine what he and his family must be going through. I hve dealt with many hundereds of fatalities over the years, but this is something completely different.

My respect to the chap for letting me know that the he will not be there but the meeting gors ahead. To be honest, if that had been me, I am not so sure that I wuld have been as thoughtful at a time like this.

Very sad news, but I can understand why he let you know, its called civility, if you're raised properly its easy to do.

Respect


Let's face it, you wouldn't go to a nurse to get good advice on a problem with a Falco - you'd choose an Engineer or a mechanic...

The words of journo Antoine Leiris.....
On Friday night you stole away the life of an exceptional being, the love of my life, the mother of my son, but I will not give you hatred.
If the god for whom you kill so blindly made us in his image, each bullet in my wife's body would be a wound in his heart.
