  12. How awful, a recently retired person (no matter who) should have had more life to enjoy! What is the big square metal building across the street?

  16. Sad and shocking truly. It's needed to be careful indeed... A minute of distraction can be fatal. Take care, Bill.

  17. Siempre que no haya una zona para peatones, es peligroso caminar por las carreteras.

  27. Do you know if she survived? Oh, that has to be so hard for the community. A postmistress is probably known to all.

  29. Lamento profundamente! Dias de chuva, são sempre propícios a acidentes! Os condutores esquecem-se que a travagem, não é a mesma dos dias normais... e andam na habitual velocidade! Nem mesmo a passagem de peões por vezes é respeitada!
    Um grande abraço
    Ana
