Actually, the City of London has it's own police force - the Metropolitan Police.
London is used to this kind of thing. When I was a kid there we used to get bomb warnings all the time. There were bombs in Manchester when I was a student as well. The police are well trained for this stuff as are the hospitals.
We finally get the IRA to calm down and we get Al Queda, anti-capitalists and the French. Bugger.

Mooch and his wife are there at the moment too.

What a fucking morning here in London, Ang and I are ok. Five stations have been done and possibly 3 buses.

Not sure what to feel at the moment , possibly a bit shocked maybe a bit lucky and again sad for those killed and injured.

I've been going to a job agency thats 1 1/2 hours in the tube each way.
I had plained to be there at around 09:30 this morning. My journery involves 3 tube trains and 31 tube stations. Two of which were done.
For some reason my wife overslept this morning which is normally my queue to get up. She went of to work normally catching the bus. I'm almost ready to leave and she calls me to say there'd been one tube accident and to check the news for delays. Shortly after the news comes through about the rest of the stations. Ang's calls again , saying "Stay at home today" , She gets to work ok. Then the news comes through about the buses.Fuck .
I've decided to stay in today.

I need a beer !

Some poor soul just rang my phone (while reading these posts) looking for Jesse in London. You could tell he's worried, poor bastard.

I'm home just south of the river. Girlfriend just got back home. As I look out the window a couple of miles from our flat this is all going down. Frantic calling of friends but not many phones are working.

I just emailed a friend who is in and working in london... hope I hear back soon.

a friend was chatting to someone on a bus in london and the line went dead... they are worried as they cant contact them back.

Hopefully that just cos of overloading on the phone lines - I just tried calling my Mum, she's not in London but you just never know aye. I couldn't get through though.
