Subject: RE: Aberfan 50th Anniversary
I remember this all too clearly. I had just moved to Cumbernauld and was part of a group setting up a new office. We were moving furniture around and had a radio playing music. This was interrupted with the terrible news and everyone stopped, frozen. Tears flowed from men and women alike. I will be marking this, as I do every year, on my radio show on Friday. God bless them and comfort those who still grieve.
