News Article 27th September 2015



I found this article quite eye opening as many would suspect at 74 years old you would be living a peaceful life, not having a worry in the world but instead we are reading about a man who really could not have defended himself but still someone felt the need to assault and murder someone that really didn't have a say in the matter. 
The fact i found so horrific is that it wasn't just a quick death it seemed violent and meaningful, meaning that someone had either purposely attacked him or targeted him as being a weak person and felt the need to show their power over him. Each bit i read of this i felt more angered that someone could have done this to him, i think the age is a true factor in why i feel this way as i have grandparents this age and the fact is i imagine them at home with their cup of teas not being helpless for their lives. I can't even begin to think what these families would be going through and truly what messed up thing is going on in the murderer's mind. 
Overall i found this piece very vague but also very informative in the way that they have presented the information, not to hard hitting but enough to understand the nature of the crime. These stories open my eyes to the trouble that goes on without us even considering it and thinking about it.

    This is a good article with useful content from BBC News. Your opinion is very good because not only have you expressed your feelings towards the matter but you have compared the innocent victim to that of your grandparents stating how they all should be living their lives in peace which I agree with. It would be useful if you updated this post with further updates on the case when we get them. Well Done.

This story was heartbreaking to hear how a trip with friends turned to a death. This was interesting to read as many wouldn't know what a quarry was and how how he could have drowned in it, but this really touched and in my opinion i am glad they have signed a petition to get it filled who knows what else could happen. The only issue i have was they don't mention why the boy was at the quarry in the first place so something could have happened peer pressure anything ..

Grayson Perry : Who Are You?

Grayson Perry: Who Are You? Grayson Perry is an English Artist mainly known for his Ceramic Vases, however for this program you get to see all his ideas and skills come to life in a hard hitting and remarkable program. Using 4 subjects to tackle in a very psychological way that explores each of their personalities and appearances. What it means to you? This programme meant a lot to me because it really made me open up my eyes to the experiences many people go through and this really engaged me throughout the programme. The part i felt the most to me was the overall approach the program took, it made you listen and watch what people have done in their past,present and what they are to do in their future. It allowed you access to the certain people life’s and what they have done e.g. the english women that changed to islam as she felt it saved her from the past she had once had, and also the transgender girl who is now in the process to become a buy. This is all very raw m...
