Agreed and this week brought back the hurt. Walked past the spot many times where the IRA bomb went off in Manchester, nearly 21 years ago. Gives me chills thinking how much damage it caused but it thankfully not causing any deaths, this being in part to them giving a coded pre-warning before the blast, giving time for people to be evacuated. It was still one of those moments, where was you when.... ?
I remember it being fairly warm day, I was sat drinking with friends in a Pub in Grasscroft, not far from Saddleworth Moors. I think we were in the midst of Euro 96 and the news broke about the bomb.
