If your like this now I'd hate to meet you as an old man,a guarenteed knife through the ball I think.
Well, i never shed a tear for Princess Di when she died, why should i? I was not related to her, she led a privelidged life and was far from the 'poor little princess' the media made her out to be - after she died. I cried when my closes relatives died, i save my tears who i care about, not someone who wouldn't even blink if i died. And yes, all those people crying in my eyes was ridiculous. Get a grip is the first thing i saw when all the papers, tv channels and shops closed in 'respect' for what seemed like an age. Pathetic.

At least with the Hillsborough tragedy, people close to home were affected and does have a bit of justification for mourning. But why would i be upset for someone i don' know? Call me heartless i wasn't upset over Ken Bigley. Sure i felt sorry for his family, but i didn't know the man, why should i cry for him?
