Xmas is sad working for the police, we had 4 people die today (some of old age other is in more horrible ways) and had a fatal car crash yesterday involving a 21 yr old guy yesterday. I cant help feeling a little sad... I mean I know its life we all live and die and accidents happens but these people must have been looking forward to Xmas, they may have got their girlfriend/boyfriend, brother/sister grandchildren presents etc.. which they will open after their loved ones have gone... how sad is that
