Saddest part is three are dead, one of which is presumed to be a child (not confirmed as yet), a terrible act on what was meant to be a day of fun for thousands...

Such a cowardly act...

 

[Topper]

A cowardly act for sure, it seems they have not got the balls to admit it either.

Just announced: London Marathon in two weeks will go ahead.

 

[PaulR]

Not two weeks time - next Sunday (the 21st).

Son-in-law is competing in it again so obviously we have an interest!

 

[Lazarus]

Best he gets the right date, then :-shifty


(I merely parroted what some Suit said on Breakfast TV: To me, exercise is a way of accelerating the expenditure of one's ration of heartbeats!)

This evening at lest in 2 cities in Latvia people will run 5-7 km to show support to Boston casualties.
