Words fail me. Is everyone OK?

I hope this isn't the start of something very sinister.
Tubes and buses being blown up.
This world is turning to *****

Words fail me. Is everyone OK?
There have been (according to the BBC) three bus explosions and a huge power surge on the underground which has wiped out the whole network.
Mobile phones are down so if you work in London or are at home and can get access to the internet please let us know you're OK...

I have heard that Sheepman and Sal are both OK, and I'm fine too.
It's just horriffic - the radio's on and eye witnesses are phoning in...
Eerie, I was just going to post a "roll call" thread on the same lines.
I must have missed the Kings X incident by minutes and we can see the smoke in Russell Square from here.
Very sobering.
Hope everyone else is OK....
What the hell is going onOriginally Posted by David Franklin
We were told power surges, what caused them?
why are people so fcking evil
Please don't let there be any deaths or serious injuries. My thoughts and prayers go to everyone involved and I pray there will be no more.
Report just in of explosion at Tavistock Square - very very close to the Jive Bar...Originally Posted by Sparkles
They're looking at the bombs and undergound stations and there seems to be a triangulation - suggesting something more sinister.
They're investigating Aldgate East, Russell Square, King's Cross, Liverpool Street and some others but they're speaking too fast for me to type.
Bus explosion at tavistock place confirmed.
Fatalities confirmed.
All hospitals on 'major incident alert'.

Please Lets not starting blaming people before we know exactly whats gone on!Originally Posted by cerocmetro
Hope everyone is Ok.
Of course I'm blaming people, bombs don't put themselves on buses. I just don't know who to blame, yet.Originally Posted by Msfab
If they're planting bombs, how much more sinister do you need? Though one has to suspect there was a certain plan of "Knock out the tube, then when everyone is evacuated onto the streets and buses, blow up some buses".Originally Posted by Sparkles
Still not entirely clear what happened with the tube - some eyewitness reports strongly suggest an electrical issue rather than a bomb. But that may well have been "knock-on" damage from an initial explosion.
Reports of 90+ casualities @ Aldgate East alone; seems likely there will be several hundred total.
Bus explosions confirmed at Tavistock Square and Liverpool Street.
Following this on the Beeb and CNN websites, guys hope you're all okay down there, keep safe.
Eerier- I was going to post the exact same thread and call it 'Roll Call'.Originally Posted by NewKid
I'm here. Had to walk to work from Kings Cross (I work in St James's Park), and I think I heard an explosion at Euston (something banged very loudly and it didn't sound like a car crash), but I'm OK. Just for a change, it looks like it was a very good thing that the Thameslink had collapsed due to the bit of rain again- I was considerably later into Kings Cross than I would otherwise have been.
Next important question- have you all phoned your Mums and Dads?
Now being described as a series of co-ordinated explosions by the police.
'JUST' heard from Mr Lory, he's Ok (bloody mobile's ) he just hasn't a clue how he's going to get home! He works close to Russell Square!
I was in the Edgware Road last night!
I agree with CerocMetro, these people are pure evil, who ever they are!

Glad he's OK.Originally Posted by Lory
For anyone else worrying - I've heard the mobile network is overwhelmed and rumours they've switched it off for all but emergency calls and services. So don't assume bad news just because someone isn't answering their mobile.
Police have turned mobile network off in Town. Stops terrorists speaking to eachother and also as in Madrid they are used to set off bombsOriginally Posted by Lory
DavidB and LilyB are both ok
Re the Mobile phones I heard once that the first responce in a disaster that initiates the governments responces - those set up for terror attacks and the old cold war attacks is to turn off the Mobile system. not 100% clear on the thinking behind that.
But i may have somat to do with limiting further terrorist activity (if indeed this is what is happening).
Just wish I could remember the source of that now.
