HelenW Posted September 19, 2001 Share Posted September 19, 2001 Hola amigos I am back from my holiday on the hot volcanic island of Fuerteventura, browner, blonder and more relaxed than when I left. (but 4lbs heavier AARGH!) Now I have to remember what the hell I was doing on CMI. I would just like to say that my thoughts are with those in America that may have lost friends or loved ones last week, and I hope that the American members of the forum are all OK. The news of what has happened is truly shocking. it is really freaky cos every time I go on holiday something shocking happens. Last year I was in America for 3 weeks and I rang my brother just a few days before coming home and he told me about the petrol crisis. I didn't believe him as it seems so unlikely that a whole country such as England could be without petrol. I am not trying to imply that the events in England last year are in any way as serious or as devastating as those in America where many lives have been lost, I just mean to say that it seems to be that every time I go abroad, something shocking that you could never believe would happen occurs. I think next year I had better stay in England for my holidays. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MagnusB Posted September 20, 2001 Share Posted September 20, 2001 Same thing always happens to me. We were going home from Greece soon, and right then, that concorde crashed! I did not feel like flying right then, even though we were of course not flying a concorde. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Natty Posted September 20, 2001 Share Posted September 20, 2001 Hiya Helen Good to have you back on boared. So other than the events in America, you had a good holiday? It's scary, I mean everything was so peaceful and everyone was happy 2weeks ago, now the whole world seems in shock and no one feels safe anymore. You hear reports that the American Embassy in France was gonna be a target, and that America are gonna be attacking Afghanastan. Your whole life all you ever do is read and learn about war through books and history, and now we're gonna be in the biggest war, or at least witness it. All I can do is hope that if anything happens, no one in my family or even my friends gets called up to military service ------------------ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
