I’m ok!!!
12:08 pm Thu, 7th July 2005Just letting you all know I’m ok, if you’ve heard the news about London. If you haven’t heard… there’s been bomb blasts all over central london transport… in 6 tube locations, and 1 bus. Its chaos in central london. Half our office wasn’t able to get in.
We’ve been watching sky and bbc news on tv here keeping up with the latest news as it happens. Its pretty scary…. we got in touch with one of our clients who was actually on the first of the tube trains that exploded. Coming into Edgeware Road from Kings Cross. He was in the back carriage and the explosion happened in the front 2. Apparently the blast was so strong the roof of the trains blew off, soot and smoke everywhere and they were waiting there for 30 mins not knowing what was happening. Finally when they were able to get out, they had to walk over people/bodies(?) to get out.
Also a girlfriend of my workmates friend was at Camden stuck, and overheard military people (who are drafted in to help) saying that they’ve actually defused another 4 bombs around central london, but aren’t announcing this fact. I really hope there isn’t going to be any more repeats of this later today..
Anyways… its pretty chaotic in central London… diff reports coming in from all over the place. No idea about number of fatalities yet. I’m sure it will all become clear over time. At this stage, I’m just dreading trying to get home from work this evening….
