Really? My parents were forever jetting off and leaving us! They went to Australia for 3 weeks once and Canada for a month before I could join them for the remaining 2 months of our holidays!Quote:

It's disrespectful to be discussing trivia about somebody's (anybody's) loss on a football discussion website
I agree and I do feel awful for their poor families. RIP.
