So sad to hear of the terrorist attack in Las Ramblas area in Barcelona.
Stayed there a few times over the years and usually just the pickpockets you have to look out for.
Terrorists will not put us off from seeing The Rolling Stones, but really sad to hear about more fatalities and injuries on the streets of Europe.

Hoping to go there gregor, but not 100% sure.
A lot of ifs and buts at the moment, but really hoping to get there.
Will definitely see you once again if I can make it.

That is a contemptible statement and anyone who applauds it should be ashamed of themselves.

sadly many people in western cultures are stupid, including where i live in scotland.
how many of us actually openly condemn our governments for siding with american foreign policy and their continuing belief that to always start or involve themselves in wars in the middle east is the right thing to do.
We didnt have this problem in europe 30 years ago, our governments played a huge part in bringing it on, that is the main reason we now have terrorists, and will continue to have till people actually engage their brain and put pressure on their government to stop bombing innocent people in the middle east.
time we all woke up and realised most western governments are driven by corruption and greed, Theres an old saying. "you get the government you deserve"
its sad whats happening in barcelona and cambrils, but not surprising, some where else will get hit next and more innocent people will suffer.
but peoples stupidity knows no bounds, if you vote for someone like trump with no political experience to run your country are you really thinking rationally.
western culture governments bring terrorists to their own people by their actions and are then surprised they have terrorists.

That's about the stupidest thing anyone's ever said.

Walloping a wasps nest, repeatedly over and over... one should expect to be stung.

anyone who thinks western governments actions in invading countries, changing regimes, arming armies to use to fight against others, dosent in some large way bring terrorists to western nations is incredibly stupid.
many european countries didnt have terrorists pre 9/11,2001, now they do.
america and its allies invading iraq and afghanistan played its part.
funny how people stupidly think a nation can invade another and they wont retaliate, ofcourse they will.
