Just learn't that the president of the Glasgow Celtic fan club here in Toronto, and his wife and grandaughter were killed in that rubbish truck accident in Glasgow. RIP

Indeed so many people dying like this. Awful.

The lorry driver was reported to have collapsed at the wheel but there is no further reports on how he is.

RIP to them all.

Terrible sad news, and our thoughts and prayers are with the families and friends of those affected with this tragedy. Saw on Facebook some young man cracked a joke about this, though extremely insensitive he had been found and a picture of him with full name and where he lives, with the words "l hope someone sorts him out" :shock:
this is not acceptable either as the young mans comments weren't. The link thankfully has been removed.

RIP to all who lost their lives. Thoughts with all the families involved. So tragic. And only a year after the Clutha tragedy. Unbelievable.

KITA to all arseholes on Facebook. That's a Kick in the arse.

*Disclaimer* Not saying all who are on Facebook are arseholes. I'm saying it's a kick in the arse to the arseholes who are on Facebook. They'll know who they are.

As you say Marko, truly tragic and something that will ruin Christmas for the families of those killed for ever. My condolences go out to all of them.

Isn't it weird how there is always some kind tragedy at Christmas. You almost come to expect it.
