Yep I remember it well when I was back home. I remember sitting onhe cuch watching the Channel Ten late night news with Sandra Sully who at the time I had a bit of a soft spot for.  I wound up sitting watching this horrible event unfold into the wee hours of the morning. Many people in the office the next morning including myself looked like they had't slept at all. Just one of those horrible days in your life that you will never forget where you were and what you were doing.
