    It's good to hear that you're relatively OK Mars Bar.
    What a truly dreadful experience for all concerned, especially for the families and friends of those poor men who died.

    My sister was on the bus too, pretty pissed off that no one let me know and I had to find out about it on boards of all places. But she's fine and that's the main thing, she was brought into hospital as a precaution.

    Just after finding out that the van driver was a nephew of a close family friend.

    From bad to worse. :(

    Sorry to hear that MarsBar.
    Glad that you are ok and that the loss of life was minimal - could have been so much worse. Scant consolation to the loved ones of the deceased of course.

    RIP.

    I think we should refrain from speculating about what may have or did happen. Im sure it will be made public after the investigation.

    I know the van drivers dad, he is an absolute gentleman a very placid man whom I often enjoy a chat with.

    heartbreaking to think what the families of these men are going through:(
