Thanks ladies, we'll recover but it's just such a shock how it got out of control so quickly. There's the fear that if it happened once it can happen again but hopefully the police will be better equipped to handle it if it happens again. Just can't believe all those people died for no reason :(
It is depressing and I am saddened that we have had to experience this. But, take comfort in the knowledge that it is over and that the majority of our country do not condone the violence and destruction carried out by the minority.
Thanks chick, ure totally right, it is the minority of people and society isn't doomed! I've been watching on the news, have you seen some of the people that have been caught looting? They're middle class people with jobs and a decent education who say they just got caught up in it, sounds like Lord of the Flies!
I haven't been watching the news tbh - I find the news depresses me too much as it is never positive! Lol. If the looters were all unemployed then it would be easier for us all to explain it away, I guess. But the fact that they aren't all unemployed means that everyone, everywhere will be speculating and second-guessing... Not much incentive for me to watch the news for the next couple of weeks lol!

I've been so sad to see what's been happening in London and Birmingham this past week.
