Look at all the flowers..

IN a town united by grief over the deaths of three little girls, the King stood in a colourful sea of flowers, soft toys and heart-shaped balloons and shared in Southport's sorrow.

Charles visited the town yesterday to express his "deepest sympathy" for victims of the attacks on July 29 and meet the families and survivors.

Bebe King, six, Elsie Dot Stancombe, seven, and Alice da Silva Aguiar, nine, died, and 10 others were injured in the stabbings at a Taylor Swift-themed dance class at the Hart Space Community Centre.

Arriving at Southport Town Hall, Charles viewed a large makeshift memorial for the victims, and told one woman: "Look at all the flowers."

The King did a walkabout, shaking hands with the many members of the public who had been waiting to catch a glimpse of him and thank him for visiting.

One little boy, Max, eight, gave him a red silk heart he had made himself, prompting the King to gently pat his head in thanks.

A woman called June presented Charles with some pink hearts she had crocheted and asked him: "Please give them to Kate and Charlotte."

"I will," he promised.

The crowd clapped and cheered as the King slowly made his way along the barriers, accepting small gifts.

One woman told him: "Thank you so much for coming, it means an awful lot."
