When I worked at the children’s hospital I had to take the police to the mortuary to identify 2 children that had died in a house fire somewhere in Manchester,I could smell the smoke for ages after.
Saw something similar in Spain. Driving up a mountain track to a friends house and noticed a hat in this olive grove...not thinking anything of it we just drove on.....later turned out to a be farmers hat with the farmers head in it, the tractor was lost in the undergrowth with the rest of his bodyBeen lucky myself to not witness anything too awful but I was told a story about a motorcyclist who had collided with a lampost outside a pub late at night. One of the regulars saw his helmet fly over the road and went to pick it up. Soon wished he hadn't.
terrible thing to witness, but we didn't lose a cure for cancerCant remember where exactly, A roundabout in Davyhulme, Urmston area going into Trafford Park, a route where the big tankers used to drive. Was in the car with my dad, I'll have been about 8yo or so and he pulled over and told me to stay in the car. He got out to see what was going on and apparantly some kids on push bikes were waiting for the wagons etc to slow down at the roundabout and they would grab onto the mud guards and get pulled along. Except for one who went under the rear wheels......I saw the firemen shovelling something in a large bin bag whilst another was hosing stuff down the grid. The poor tanker driver had driven over one of these kids and completely squashed him.
Burning some old tree branches in our backyard, the fire wouldn't take so I got a can of petrol from the garage and chucked a bit on to help thing along, I was holding the can in one hand, it still had about 3 litres of petrol in it, something made me look at it and there was a flame coming out of the spout, I completely panicked and shit myself and just lobbed it near some trees ran into the house heart pounding and waited for an explosion which never happened thank fuck.
But that flame was fucking horrible. I really thought I was gonna die.
Don't know who he is but I take it he's good looking and debonair like me.You are Keith Flint and I claim my £5....
