Remembering all those who died on the day and subsequently as a result of toxic materials. That day changed the world for ever. Wishing everyone peace and safety now and in the future.

Yesterday I posted a remembrance paragraph on a local app and was amazed to discover that another local man was killed on 9/11 , Simon Turner. There were. 69 British fatalities that day and 2 of them Originally lived less than 1 mile apart. Unbelievable. RIP.

Another year, another anniversary, more first responders who have paid the ultimate price. It seems so long ago and yet feels like yesterday. Sending love and solidarity from the UK. Remembering Michael Lomax from my home town of Stockport and the son of one of the teachers who taught both my...

Sending love and remembrance of this awful anniversary of the terror attacks on 9/11 from the U.K.. May the sacrifice of the innocent victims and the incredible bravery of the first responders and others who arrived later never be forgotten. Special prayers for the Wall Street Bulls firehouse...

And now I imagine a fine young man. Certainly shows the way time passes.

21 years have passed. Lifetimes for many, yet it still feels as raw as the day it happened. Sitting here in the U.K. proudly wearing my Wall Street Bulls T shirt purchased from the fire house on my only trip to New York in 2015. Maybe one day I’ll make it back to your incredible city but because...

Just a thought on flight related Covid-19 restrictions. If someone on the flight has a serious nut allergy then nuts aren’t served and announcements are made asking people not to eat/open nuts that they have brought on board themselves. If a person is classified as immunocompromised and has the...

I know they’re not comparable, that’s the point I was trying rather clumsily it would seem, to make. Politely read the post carefully. Would you prefer that Holocaust Memorial Day was ignored? “Those that fail to learn from history are doomed to repeat it.” Winston Churchill

Whilst I appreciate the calm response, I am appalled that you would find anything offensive or in poor taste in my post as nothing was further from my intention. National Holocaust day is of great significance to me and I was trying to illustrate the ridiculous situation of people arguing over...

Not comparing at all, just advocating compassion. I am totally in favour of getting people vaccinated by any means. Just stating that the extreme vitriol of some posters is dangerous.

Today in the U.K. is National Holocaust Memorial Day. Just saying this to put the hatred and abuse being shown by mask haters and mask advocates and vaccination fans against anti vaccination believers in some sort of perspective. Extreme attitudes, on either side, do nothing to help a...

The greatest one hit wonder song, in my opinion!

Maybe declare the unvaccinated immunocompromised? Or is that too radical? Or logical?

Wishing everyone on this forum a very happy and virus free Christmas and a prosperous and Peaceful New Year. To those that don’t celebrate Christmas have a lovely holiday season! May 2022 be the year when even the immunocompromised can rejoin society in safety.

I’m delighted that you’ve finally made it back to the U.K. and hope that you find your Dad in good spirits and recovering well. I fully share your dismay at the lack of masks in London. As for U.K. politics, we are obviously at opposite ends of the spectrum but that doesn’t stop me wishing you a...
