Princess Diana was killed in the tragic car accident in Paris 29 years ago today. It was my last day of work at DTRA. My wonderful coworkers had taken me out for a goodbye lunch. Where were you and what were you doing when you heard the news?

I was fifteen, and my parents were out of town for the week. My 17 year old sister was home from college to stay with me. We turned on CNN, and there it was. My mom called home to check on me because she knows how soft hearted I am, and that I would be upset. I was very upset, and kept thinking how horrible I felt for her sons.

I was watching on Univision a comedy program called "Welcome" when the show was pre-empted about the tragic auto accident that ended the life of the People's Princess on Saturday evening. "Welcome" is a show that was on Venezuela television and transmitted on Spanish television network called Univision.

She grew up not far from me in Northamptonshire.I seen her a few times on various things. She would come to our counties cricket team. I never fancied her at all and not sure what the appeal was to be honest
