Gilly I think there's so much around you because they're centering on University College Hospital at the moment - they've cordoned it off. It seems the one who escaped may be around there.

It's natural to be worried. We were panicking because my son was making his way through the transport system there - but we've just heard from him and he's on the train away from London now. It really does make you worry.

Hang on in there Gilly - your TCS friends will help you through!

NOW the London Police cheif has said these ARE serious incidents. There have been 4 attempted explosions. They are smaller bombs than last time.

Gilly,

Hang in there. I'm glad you have the cab ordered because you really shouldn't be walking on that foot. Soon you will be home with Guiness.

Yeah, I just saw the Met Cheif's statement on the news, "dealing with very serious incidents" asking ppl to stay put for now...

I really wish they would stop making assumptions and wait to report when they really do know what happened.... There are different things they are saying.

Gilly, I am glad you have a cab coming for you. Hang in there. My thoughts and prayers are with all of you in the UK. I am praying for minimal injuries and no casualties.

If only it was that simple Susan. He's on his way to Essex for the night. But then has to be back in London tomorrow to get on a bus for his trip to France. I'll be glad to hear he's on the boat tomorrow.

Gilly it seems like some of the transport system might be re-opening soon. I'd keep an eye on the news sites. Although you may prefer to keep your cab tonight.

Another 2 hours it will be here - it's only nearly 3pm ish here and it's booked for 5pm.

Hoping that we can actually leave the area though as my work street is now partly closed

Hopefully. The only line I can really use is the Victoria Line... I could trek to Liverpool St then get WAGN rail but I don't think I can manage the walk/tube etc with this foot!

Cab might be easier for today I think, plus I don't think my tummy can handle the tube tonight I am feeling that fluttery!

Where abouts do you live btw?

Gilly - I can imagine that you would feel better using the cab tonight.

Right in the middle of England - near Leicester.

2 pill-box size bombs have been found.

They just said the first suspects would be anyone who was injured.

The bus driver on the bus where the windows were blown out said he heard a noise from the back of the bus and saw a package, but no one was injured.

They have 7 people in custody from the bombings 2 weeks ago and have a good idea who is responsible. I HOPE THEY CATCH ALL OF THESE TERRORISTS!!!
