Dark clouds

I don’t know where to start with today’s blip.
Woke this morning to hear on the radio that a Russian airliner with over 200 people on board had crashed shortly after take off from Sharm el Sheikh.
 
We are going there tomorrow.
 
 Was it a technical problem, bomb on board or shot down by terrorists?
 
Putin  has declared three days mourning.  The most likely scenario is a technical problem.
 
Years ago we would be very happy going to our local seaside resort, in my case either Barry or Tenby to sit on the beach and swim in the sea.
And it would be 100 per cent safe.
 
Today we travel half way around the globe to do the same - and face enormous risks.

Our sympathy goes out to all those families who have lost loved ones in this latest airline tragedy.
