Agreed.  Going after this sort of target seems a new low...

I dip in and out of the Gathering at the mo so have only just spotted this.


Yes, it’s shocking. Especially given so many were so young. I’m about 15 miles away and both my kids had friends there, as was the girl who lives opposite us. I’ve filled up a couple of times over it.
The village I live in is part of Warrington district so like you remembered the Warrington bombings as well as the big IRA bomb in Manchester that killed no one, but perversely kick-started the citys' rejuvenation. The IRA had a couple of goes at Warrington; they tried to blow up a gasometer not long before the Bridge Street attack and shot a policeman. It was a teenager where I lived who was car-jacked and bundled into the boot by the IRA as they made their escape. I think that was after they shot the policeman?


Anyway, utterly sickened and saddened by the whole mess.

I do hope any Manc Gatherers and families, are safe and well. 
Such as sad, barbaric and senseless attack. 
Still in shock myself. Just thinking about it, young girls enjoying a night out and parents helping them fulfill a dream, and it all ending in carnage. Just so fucked up. Brought back some memories of a previous attack and how my country felt a collective shame over the Warrington bombing and murders. Even though it was not being done in our name, we took blame. 
Stay strong all, stand together, these murderers will not win.
