Oslo bomb and shooting

[Vapin' Joe]

Bloody hell Dave, that makes it seem a lot closer to home.

 

[asterix]

Why?

 

[threebikesmcginty]

Shocking stuff Dayvo, looks terrible.

 

[Arch]

Bloody hell, sorry to hear that Dayvo. Best wishes to all involved.

 

[Dayvo]

Thank you ALL very much for your kind words of support.

The city was, apparently, deserted today, and understandably so.

The entire country is in shock as this is totally alien to them - it's just something that happens in other countries

The son is being operated on as I write.



Thanks again.

The whole nation is with you and your family, and your friend and his gf's family at this terrible time.

Norway is in shock, and the sorrow in the land is palpable. To be so closely involved is beyond my imagination.

My deepest sympathies go out to your friend, yourself and the family. We are praying for the recovery of J's son.

Take care and see you soon.

I watched the drama unfolding on Sky news and can't for the life of me understand why. My thoughts are with you, your friends and all the people of Norway.

My brother lived in Norway and I have visited.

It's a lovely place and I am struggling to grasp what there is to hate even if you are right wing and religious.

Dark days.

Right wing and religious doesn't come into it, mentally ill does.

Dayvo I can't add anything but my very best wishes to you and yours.

It's been a sad day and my heart goes out to the people of Norway... it's doubly saddening that a member of this forum has been so closely affected by these horrendous events. My heart goes out to you and your friends and family Dayvo

 

[XmisterIS]

What is there to say about what happen? Words cannot express ... Why would someone do such a thing?

 

[Night Train]

So sorry to hear that Davo. My thoughts are with you and your gf's son.
Such and awful thing to happen to so many people.

As you all know by now there has been a double tragedy here in Norway causing the death of (to-date) almost 100 people.

8 were killed in the bomb blast in the capital and 84 were shot dead by one, possibly two gunmen at a youth camp on an island not far from Oslo.

Incredibly enough, one of the gunmen, held in custody by the police, is behind both the bomb attack and shootings.

My girlfriend's youngest son is seriously injured, although not dangerously, and awaiting a second major operation in the emergency ward at hospital.

My workmate's girlfriend died this morning from her injuries.

Ironically, the man responsible for both attacks, was my girlfriend's other son's boss 10 years ago.

It brings the tragedy very close.

That's terrible Davyo - I hope your girlfriend's son is OK. And her and you.

When I saw the initial breaking news of a bomb in Oslo, I thought of you - but the horror of the shootings on the island has been mind-boggling, and just gets worse every time I see the news.

Thoughts are with you Dayvo.
