London Attacks

Damn, not really sure how to react to all this. I’m writing this from work, which I almost never do. It’s just that I seriously can’t concentrate on anything. Everyone’s been phoning each other, making sure nothing was happening.

It only hit me that this was actually serious when I saw Stathis standing at my desk, COMPLETELY distraught. Up until then we were lead to believe that it was the tube system acting up again, which it does on a regular basis. He’d been in the Euston Station bomb (which has not been officially reported yet) and for a milkshake, he would have been in the thick of the bomb blast. As it transpired he only felt it and got some flying debris on his leg or something.

We’ve been told to stay put, so no one’s venturing out of the office for lunch or whatever. A bit extreme probably since I guess/hope the worst is over. Now comes the aftermath, the theories and the reactions.
