Thank you once again, S's H, for this, previously unknown to me, disaster. Many Families picking up the pieces of their Lives. That *wind* had a very clever way of sub-navigating the total, humane *responsibilities* of insurance companies et al. ... More than a wee bit heart-breaking. Rest In Peace. Stay free. Rab ❤ 🕊 🌠

@@scotlandshistory I suppose you are right. There are a number of such disasters dotted through history whose impact lessens over time, excluding to obviously the people and the people's families. I've subbed BTW. I'm going to catch up on previous uploades now

Interesting that work resumed a few days later. Nowadays the entire complex would have been taped off as a crime scene.
