      An awful day. Well posted, beast. What was worse was the actions of some in authority afterwards.

      Rah-Rah-Rasputin was poisioned, beaten to death, shot repeatedly and dumped in a hole in the ice where he actually drowned.

      I was doing PE on the field with my class at a small school in rural Dorset; a beautiful September day with not a cloud in the sky.

       

       

      I knew nothing about what had happened (primary school's can be in a world of their own) until I was driving home and all the radio stations seemed to have news on them, which I felt strange for mid-afternoon. Took me awhile to realise the enormity of it all.

  19. Rather than letting a stone train out 5 minutes early, let's set the route for passenger when it's still 10 miles away #really
