Think other than around the arena itself pretty much back to normal as I said they can't beat us.....

Is that raised just from the Manchester area or nationally?

I'm proud to be a Manc!

My friend Martyn was confirmed dead today after being missing since the blast, they took me to one side at work to tell me then dropped me off at home.

Work have started a collection to add to the fundraising efforts

I went on facebook and saw a local lady on a crochet group had an idea to cover the City in hearts so that's what we're working on, it's a welcome distraction.

A guy at work is Sikh and this morning he was telling me how he's going to temple tonight to cook food to hand out hot meals in the hospitals

Tattoo artists across Manchester are offering the Manchester bee tattooed to raise money

The homeless men who helped are being housed

Definitely proud to be mancunian today more than ever

Sorry to hear that.

Must be awful for friends, families and colleagues. I can't imagine what the families of the deceased are going through, or those with life changing injuries in hospital. Horrific

the very worst of human behaviour often brings out the very best! A fantastic response to the cowardly act of Monday

I've loved reading the stories about how people have helped out there, food and drink given to parents and the emergency services, the taxi drivers offering anyone who wanted a lift for free, hotels letting people stay, again, without charge, in the face of evil, Manchester has shown its true spirit, proud to call you our neighbours

I've read some really uplifting stories of heroism along with all the sad news. Those with humanity will always prevail over those with just hate in their heart.

I had this discussion with a forumite last night as I watched the news. I've always been immensely proud of being a Mancunian. Despite leaving 15 years ago I always consider it to be my home. The past few days have made me even more proud. Just watching the spirit of humanity bring the community together and seeing them rise up like a Phoenix from the flames, how could I be anything but proud?

I'm so proud of my daughter. She's a Junior doctor and was on her last night shift when the bombing happened. Stayed on and did back to back shift to pitch in on A n E.

Other medics and support staff turning up on days off to pull together.

Terrorists will never break spirit like that......you go Judith. xx

Haven't been on fb much over past few days, I can imagine it has been surreal. I guess it's the not knowing and wondering? Then the finding g out. Just awful and so sorry for everyone xxxx

Iceland, but Aldi is closer..

I'd like to think that it's the good British blitz spirit..

Knowing what a miserable bunch us Londoners are, unfriendly and offish, completely different to out friendly and outgoing northern cousins, after every bombing in London, there was always a resolve that seemed to unite people..

Just remember, no matter what the Bastards do, they won't beat us.

I'd say it's of our friendly nature than human spirit or being stubborn fuckers.

Sorry to hear that he was one of your friends Chloe, my mates daughters half sister was one and another friends cousin was one of the girls as well.

The atmosphere around the city centre is very weird and very difficult to understand, but we are Manchester we will come back bigger and better like before.
