Re: where was you when you found out dianna had died.

I had just landed in Izmir (Turkey) for the start of a holiday. We were told as we got off the plane. The Turks had set up shrines all over the country, and everybody lit candles. We were all given ribbons to wear. On the day of the funeral I was on a gullet cruise and we were totally silent for about 30 minutes. When we returned to the hotel, the family who owned it took us into the tv room to watch the remainder of the processions and things, it was really sad. It was so strange, as the Turkish people kept coming up to the English in the resorts and offering condolences.
