London calling...

[PeteHall]

Just calling in...

4 bombs (down from initial reports of 7) in central London, 37 confirmed dead so far (up from 33), tube, rail and bus networks at a standstill.

The 5 main TV channels are virtually wall-to-wall rolling news... except for breaks for essentials like soap operas, championship golf and property improvement programmes!

I'm virtually unaffected despite being just a couple of miles from the nearest bomb (the bus)... family are all OK, but I don't drive and the lack of transport means I can't travel too far... and I've only got half a kitchen because the kitchen fitter went home early (the new kitchen meant that I was at home and I'm not trapped trying to figure out how to get home from work)
