Sorry, I don’t mean to depress you but these sad stories always get me. A 50 year old Dutch woman saw her husband (56), son (20) and two daughters (17 & 23) fall to their deaths while climbing on Mont Dolent – part of the Mont Blanc massif; she later had to identify their bodies [...]
Crazy act of the day … Some French guy decided to bring his 4 year old daughter to Italy and for some reason proceeded to beat her head into a monument until he put her into a coma. Should a man who was apparently “undergoing psychiatric treatment” be allowed to care for a small child? [...]
… service will return to normal shortly. By normal I mean a post a month or so. I can’t believe it’s been a month and a half since I last posted! Doesn’t time just fly when you’re up to your hairy eyeballs?? We just took our first step onto the property ladder. Probably not the [...]

No April Fool’s jokes allowed here. Sorry. No can do. Only because i’m not smart enough to think of any good ones. So I’ll leave that to … hmmm … searched through my list of blogs and was amazed at the amount of them no longer blogging … which reminds me that I was supposed [...]
