lo folks
dont let the news feeds lie to ya. i live 10 mins from 3 of the bomb sites and things are just peachy here. us londoners have a long genetic memory of having the shizzle blown out of us. we had the germans and the irish and now possibly the arabs try it all and thats just within living memory. we just knuckle down grin and bare with it. compared to madrid or 911 we got off incredibly lucky so far.39 confirmed mortality and 300 or so wounded.
i went out for a bit of a wander earlier today and the mood onthe street is remarkably chipper. we have a few days of travel chaos line up for us until they reopen kings X and the roads the bombsites were on will be closed until the forensics boys have done their thang. but apart from that it will be mostly business as usual tomorow and by monday we will barely give it a mention.
sorry if this post sounds flippant its not how it was meant. but if you let these people get to you , then you play straight into their arms.
one side effect is that ive had famiy that i havent spoken to in 5 years (mainly cos they are all c**** phone me and see if i was ok.
i think they wanted to fight over the inheritance.
ive had an interesting day. sadly its been interestinginthe way of a chinese insult
i would also like to take this opportunity to offer mine and my teams condolences to anyone affected by the attacks today.
anything inthis post except that last sentence are my views and mine only. as usual
