Growing pains




From my February post, Bride of Frankenstein, re the choice of 11th April as a date for Dunblane massacre survivor, Andy Murray's wedding :

It seems, to me, a rather ominous date to choose, the 101st day of the year...

Remember that Andy was at Dunblane Primary on the date of  "Thomas Hamilton's" massacre. He "escaped" by hiding in the headmaster's office.

During the legal enquiry into the massacre, Knight of the Thistle, Lord Cullen, allegedly received an anonymous letter. It was dated 11th April 1996 and stated...

From the Independent dated 12th April 1996: "The Dunblane primary school gym where Thomas Hamilton massacred 16 children and their teacher was demolished yesterday. No more than a pile of rubble remains on the spot"...

The allegedly Biblical Stone of Destiny, after it's repatriation by law students on Christmas Day 1950 from Westminster, was missing for a few months before, on the 11th April 1951...

From my March post:  Blood, sweat and tears

There's a couple of standing stones within the Cathedral, one an old Pictish example which was found close by, the other a tribute to the children lost in the massacre...

Some people who follow the "ley line energy" theories, believe that statues and suchlike are not randomly placed, but rather they too have a strategic purpose.

From here
We saw hailstones on the mainly cloudy morning of  Andy Murray's wedding, but there was worse to come.

Well respected media photographer, Gordon Jack, the day before at the rehearsal, slipped and hit his head on a gravestone in the Cathedral grounds. Murray was only "feet away".  (here but everywhere)

He died in hospital, on 11/4,  just after the ceremony concluded. He was aged 47.


cheers
