Yeah, Londoners are a resilient breed. I expect this to be treated with stoical calm, on the whole, even though I feel a bit like crying right now. I just wish I could say that it came as a shock to me...

Christ.

Information in this kind of thing is always so patchy. I'd say we'd probably known about the confusion before you did - radio been crazy since early this morning.

Glad the interview went fine and you managed to get out of the area of confusion.

Yes, I probably only heard about the first explosion after I got off at Green Park, which was at about half nine. I didn't categorically know it was terrorist-related until I got texted on the way home, which was at about half eleven. If I'd known the extent, I would've stayed in central London and given blood, but my city instinct was telling me to get out ASAP.

Still a bit freaked out, to be honest.

Not surprised you're freaked out. [hugs]

Be British and get a sweet cup of tea, it helps, honest. Look after yourself.

And - I'll be giving blood for you. It's coincidence that today is the day I'd planned to donate - but I'd also forgotten.

One of those rather pointed coincidences, admittedly. Thanks for the reminder.

Hah - I made my way to a cafe when I got home and had a big cup of sugary hot chocolate :). Tea is not my thing, unbritish of me I know, but eh.

Glad I reminded you. I might go do it later if my head stops aching...maybe a nap is in order.

I am all good, if a bit shaken. It's a twisted blessing that the death count is as low as it currently is, at least. *hugs*
