Very glad that I’m not in Central London this morning.
At least one explosion confirmed so far on or near a bus outside the BMA in Tavistock Place (confused about whether it’s there or Russell Square). Reports of the double decker bus having the top ripped off.
Hearing about two other possible explosions on buses.
This together with explosions (the first reports that these were simply collisions or a power surge are fading away) at several points on the Underground . The entire network is closed.
A lot of people hurt.
Not a good day.

Perfect Path 
So glad you stayed clear as well. What a thing for me to wake up to. I’m off to check on everyone else I know who lives or works near the blast sites.
Yup – I was in getting Sky TV installed (never thought I’d be so grateful to Mr Murdoch!)
I’m planning to do some podwalking tomorrow, assuming that I can get into town at all.
Lloyd,
I’m happy to hear that you and your family are safe.
Thanks for dropping by Rick, I hope that no-one close to you was badly affected.
Lloyd,
My wife and I are loyal readers of your blog and we love your podcast. I send my condolences to everyone in London. We leave in two hours for our holiday in London (we’re American). This attack will not keep us away. Stand strong London!
Regards,
Alastair
Great to hear from you Alastair. I hope you enjoy your holiday. We’re all looking forward to getting back to normal tomorrow.
