Body Found

Earlier today I learned that they had found a woman's body in the river Wyre in Lancashire, I think that is in north England above Wales. I think everyone knows it is Nicola Bulley's body. I followed the story on the news. The mystery is no longer where is she but why is she dead?

The police seem convinced that her death is an accident, they think she fell into the river and drowned. Her friends and family think this is not an accident, they think she has been killed. 

I think this case is more famous on the news than the other missing persons mysteries because the community of Lancashire were angered by the police reaching a verdict so quickly about what had happened without a body.They think the police investation was cavalier at best. Some of them even think the investigation is a botched job. The police know more than me and falling into a river with lots of clothes on during winter can be fatal. 

Now we're all waiting patiently for the coroner's verdict, was it an accident or was she murdered? What was the cause of death? 

What happened? We're all asking ourselves. 

One Third of February

As you know, there are only 28 days in February and 29 days on leap years. I would say that on the 10th of February, slightly more than ⅓ of the month had passed by. 

Many mysteries were lingering amoungst us all during the 1st ⅓ of February.  Here in Britain we are wondering what had happened to Nicola Bulley, a lady that disappeared in a local park in broad daylight. The police were convinced she fell into the nearby river but her friends and family don't think that is true. Where is she and is she ok? We don't know, it's a mystery. 

We were also wondering why the balloon? A large Chinese balloon was seen over the USA for a long time during this last part of winter, the Americans think they were spying, the Chinese claimed it was a weather balloon. It was also quite common to bring up the mystery of the Nord sea pipeline since gas is so expensive now. The gas pipes under the Baltic sea were deliberately destroyed and no one is certain who is responsible, we only know it was deliberate. It is easy to blame the Russians but it is self harm for them. 

A personal mystery for me would be how I would cope with a dead silent room, there are sound proof rooms that are so quiet that you can hear your blood flowing through your ears and you heart beating in your chest. I learned recently that no one has been able to stay in these rooms for more than one hour, people that sit there soon start to have bizarre hallucinations and hear horrible sounds in their head. I have become curious myself, could I sit in a dead silent room for a long time and what is it like to be in there? Visiting a dead silent room is on my bucket list, a list of things to try before my body kicks the bucket.
