I've just seen that London was hit by four bombs. I wanted to make sure that all of our British friends were all right and that their families are ok. You're all in my heart and prayers.
I heard the news of the bombings on my way home from work (about 5:30 am Pacific Time). My thoughts and prayers are with the people in London.

I'm OK - have spent the morning browsing every news resource I could find rather than doing any actual work though. I'm over 100 miles from London. It feels like over the course of a few hours I've travelled back in time to the most active days of the IRA though.
I think FB is in London. Can't remember where Cep or Ste live...
Ronin and Metalliant live as far away from London as I do though.

If FB is in London, she might not be online for a while (simply because that's the least thing you're going to think about doing, considering that other people are going to be panicking about her as well). Such a terrifying ordeal. And the most I can do is hang around message boards to see if everyone is ok, checking news sites every five minutes or so. Hopefully we'll hear from everyone soon.
As far away as I am, I'm wishing I could be there to help with this!

Cep and Ste are both North of England so unless visiting should be ok.
I am less than a mile from one of the bombs but ok.
The public transport network is pretty much crippled, I have no idea how my staff will get in tonight and at present we are trying our best to deal with the aftermath. For those that dont know I am affected on two fronts.
1) I live nearby
2) as Meridian said I work for the Police.
I logged in to let people know I am ok before the hell of working tonight. I missed the blasts by 2 hours.
I do pray everyone else is well and their families are.

Oh thank goodnesss. I'm so glad that you're all right, and shall definitely keep you in my prayers as you go through this tough time. I know it has been and will continue to be rough on everyone in London for quite some time. Thanks for logging on and letting us know about yourself and others. I really appreciate it.
Praying for you all...*huggles*

Firebird even though you won't see this till much later, you take care tonight. I remember the chaos that was here in NYC when we were attacked.
I'm glad so far to hear everyone is okay. We still haven't heard from Ste at the Clubhouse. What about Katse?

Erk... so... yea. I'm here and okay.

Worry more about Firebird! She's going to be very busy and no doubt exhausted these next couple days with work.
