Tunisia

[wendy]

Had a shock, Peters wife just phoned to say their son is in Tunisia with his girlfriend in the town where it is all happening.
But she phoned straight back to say that her son had left a message on the phone to say they are both safe.
thank goodness.
This is Wendy whose son died suddenly.
Peter sends us loads of jokes.

they are still in Sousse , so I will let you know when they return home.
My friend was most concerned when she phoned me, and then luckily she found the answer message.
It is a terrible tragedy and thinking of all the people that are not so lucky.

The public must be prepared for a high British death toll following the attack on a Tunisian beach resort, Prime Minister David Cameron says.

The prime minister said his "thoughts and prayers are with the loved ones of those killed or injured".

My friend's son is staying in Tunisia until their holiday is over.

I saw the ITV news van and camera outside St Mary's church in Whickham, when I was out with Milo. They were doing a piece about the flowers being left for the lady who lived in Whickham and was killed in Tunisia.

so terrible Rosalind, it will be heard all over the country.
The problem is identifying the people, they would not have mobiles, purses or anything with them on the beach.
The people sat next to them, would not know who they are,
A nightmare for the police.

The wait for news by relatives must be agonising
