London's been odd today. I set off for work at about 9.15 having heard on the radio that the tube was not running luckily I caught a bus and got in. I came out of a meeting to catch up with the full horror of the news. I had to walk home, in fact I came through the city (financial district)since I live quite close to Liverpool street station and Aldgate. It was incredibly quiet because of the lack of traffic and obviously fewer people about than usual, but everyone seemed really calm probably because we've been used to terrorist bombings over the years (especially in the city). Obviously I wasn't in New York but it seems different because the incidents were in confined areas so, apart from going close to an area that has been roped off or the larger number of shops and bars being closed than usual, it's not necessarily obvious that something has happened. In fact there were people still not sure of what had happened at lunchtime.

Anyway look after yourself. :-)
