What's up with this crazy world, everybody at each other's throats!! Turned on the news and bombarded with bad news. Terrible shootings in Las Vegas, Spanish fighting each other, Monarch airlines going bust causing misery...maybe i shouldn't watch the news but that's not like me need to know what's going on but please think we could all do with abit of good news for a change..

Snap ! Went to BBC webpage, and hit with shootings I Las Vegas. I had the very same sentiments as you Cools. "oh no, not more bad news ! "

When do we get some good news ? Well there are smatterings but nobody seems to latch onto it, and if it's about a new baby for the Royals , you and I both know that is likely to cause a full blown disagreement.

What is happening to us all ? Have we had all the happiness washed away with tears.

Well into administration I think they said Snowy, so hopefully they may be taken over by someone but too late for people turning up this morning etc to be told the news at the airport.

All booked flights with Monarch null and void. Lots of pilots going spare for Ryanair.

Makes you wonder if Ryanair thought that some time ago but just mistimed it a bit.

Just taken another look and now there is a report that there is some confusion about his death. I hope he has survived but having read many tributes to him I think it is unlikely.

Sad news indeed. He along with the Heart breakers gave us some brilliant music. I had always hoped to one day see them live, sadly now that hope has gone. Rip Tom Petty .
