Pakistan explosion leaves many dead at Lahore park
People reading other people's text messages are flipping annoying. Only the other day I was reading the message of a lady in the seat in front of me and she typed 'I should of' instead of 'I should have' which made me very cross indeed.
At least 60 people have been killed and scores injured in an explosion at a public park in the eastern Pakistani city of Lahore, officials say.
The park was crowded with families at the time and most of the victims are said to be women and children.
Police told the BBC it appeared to be a suicide bomb. A Pakistan Taliban faction said it carried out the attack.
Pakistan's president has condemned the blast and the regional government has announced three days of mourning.
All the major hospitals in the area have been put on an emergency footing.
The explosion appears to have been at the main gate to the Gulshan-e-Iqbal park in an area where cars are usually left - and a short distance from the children's swings.
One eyewitness said there was chaos, with a stampede breaking out and children separated from their parents in the rush to escape.
