Where i sit in my office i have a window allmost directly in front of me and had a perfect view of everything going on. I saw the stretcher being taken away, i saw the bus driver looking stunned and confused smokeing a ciggerette and i saw an old lady being helped off the bus with a small head wound from the bus jerking forward.

The following day i saw someone tieing flowers to a sign post next to the site where it happened a few days later someone else adding flowers since then more and mre flowers have been placed, until the post was covered and also a second one next to it.

On friday i saw two teenage girls and a man in a suit placeing a set of flowers spelling 'mum' and a set of flowers spelling 'wife' also flowers in the shape of a pillow and another in the shape of a hymn book.

Over the last two weeks myself and a few others have seen this take place from the office window whilst we have been busy typeing away and ringing various customers. All the while a family has converted to another tragic statistic right under our noses, as ive got on with my work and watched ive seen the ladys family and friends visit the site and place flowers and read each others notes and hug each other and console each other. Over the next few weeks i will see the remaining flowers wilt and die and the visits from people will become less and less.

Allthough i would never pretend to come across like i had some personal emotional attachment to these people, and feel fake giveing some speech about how life can deal a cruel blow and how fate is an unprediable monster callous and uncompromising and she will be forever in my heart. I wish i could of shown some kind of support to them, i thought about buying flowers and placeing them there also but it seemed too insincere. Im still in two minds perhaps i will tomorrow.
