	I have just heard on the news about a gas explosion in Jersey that destroyed a block of flats. 12 people are missing and 2 in hospital. Sad thing is, it said the Fire Service were there yesterday because people were smelling gas. Wish they could have evacuated then, such a tragedy. The 3 fishermen from Jersey are still missing too. What a terrible time the community is having just now Thoughts and prayers go out to all the families Florence in the hebrides

	Such a lot of sadness there. There are bound to be many families touched by these terrible events. An explosion in the middle of the night must have been terrifying. Thinking of them all as they wait for news.
