incident
Reassured to know that all of the people I've been able to contact in London are alright, if stuck in funny places as a result of the slew of explosions across the northern part of Zone 1. Explained away initially as the result of a power surge on the Underground, the detonation of an explosive on the upper floor of a double decker bus at Tavistock Square has put paid to that.
Information is sketchy and infuriating; I have no reason to be in a panic myself, but I find this assault on my city disquieting and saddening. Part of me wishes I could be there to document some of it, but I know I'm better off being as removed as I am from home.
People can be so selfish and disappointing.

Just happy that people you know are okay. Take care.

What a tragedy.
What a rotten deal.
Glad you're OK
Your safety was one of the first thoughts that popped in my head this morning. Strange how this whole blog thing works. Glad that you and your friends are well.
Disquieting and saddening is right; especially the latter :(
I agree entirely and as you say, I think the emergency services should be applauded for the wonderful and swift job they have done bringing the most vibrant city in the world out of the lower reaches of this tragedy.
Glad to Know you're OK
