Big First

On Friday night I saw my first dead body. Heading back from Hog: The New Zealand Bar and Hof we were walking pas the end of the main street, and amongst a small crowd of people on the ground half sidewalk half road was what looked like a body. There were a couple of cop cars and an ambulance. On closer inspection we could see two legs, someone had courteously thrown some newspapers over the top half of her body, though we could still see a pool of body. We were wondering if she was OK, then the paramedics came over and just draped this blanket thing over the whole body and we realized she was not gonna be getting up. Her feet were on teh pavement, so kinda ruled out her being hit by a car, so we deduced that she must have tripped and fell and had the worst luck in the world.
