However, I think I can work out what happened. From the paper reports we know that she was crossing the road from MacDonald's to the police station. The reason for this was that there is a cycle path on that side of the road (one which I've used frequently). The school bus wouldn't normally be going that way at all - but its normal route was blocked off because of the Abingdon fair, which is always on the same day of the year.Iainhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04685228974985888660noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-97531812121356273.post-86826879020025469852008-10-17T17:00:00.000-07:002008-10-17T17:00:00.000-07:00Touched Iain.

And yet another friend from Cheltenham who has just gone up to Cambridge. One of the Cambridge friends quite often rings me when she is on her bike and I worry. So relieved when the sound changes and I know she is in the tunnel that leads under her house to the shed in the back garden.Stevehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07038807618137272711noreply@blogger.com
