well i thought I'd pay a little tribute to a friend, it's a really a sad story...
The body found in a burnt out car in Cumbria is believed to be that of a local woman.
Police have not formally identified the body. A post-mortem examination is expected to reveal more details.
The discovery was made by emergency services who were alerted to the fire-damaged vehicle at the roadside in Talkin, Brampton, on Wednesday night.
It is thought the Volvo estate car may have hit a wall before it caught fire. No other vehicles were involved.
The road between Talkin and Forrest Head was closed while officers examined the scene. The vehicle was removed on Thursday lunchtime.
It is believed the car could have been burning for some time before it was discovered.
pays tribute to 'loving wife'
The husband of a woman who was found dead in a burnt-out car in Cumbria has paid tribute to his "loving and very supportive wife".
Emma Goodridge, 39, from Forest Head near Brampton, was discovered in a fire-damaged car in Talkin last week.
She and her husband shared a common affection for the area and moved to Cumbria eight years ago after spending their honeymoon in the Lake District.
Police continue to investigate the incident which happened on Wednesday.
It is thought the Volvo estate may have hit a wall before it caught fire.
Mrs Goodridge's husband, Warren , said: "It is very difficult to understand what has happened or to even try and make sense of any of it.
"It is going to be a long and painful process and we are just taking things one day at a time.
"Both myself and our families are overwhelmed by the support that has and is being given at this devastating time.
"Emma will be deeply missed, not only by me and her friends and family but also by her work colleagues at Border Steel."
i just want to say what an absolute top guy he is...and some times when you sit back and reflect on life you have to ask the question why, he come back to work at the same time as i did a few months ago, and we both had a trauma, i can't imagine what his is like as mine is nothing compared to his....
We should live for the day..
