I was just signing out of yahoo a few moments ago when i saw the headline.

There's been a series of bombs going off in London. Kings Cross, Russell Square, Tavistock, Liverpool Street.

Several undergound stations have had these explosions and at least one bus has been bombed having the upstairs removed.

There are two dead so far and reports of more dead on a tube train stuck somewhere out of King's Cross station.

Prayers and best wishes for all those folks injured and their families.

All this lot is quite near to where they hold the London Coinfair, i was thinking. Russell Square in particular, only last month i was sat in there thinking this place is rather tranquil to say it's slap bang in the middle of a city. Less than one month on and they've got terrorists blowing up buses there.

It a truly mad world. :(

Innocent people are paying the price again because of a bunch of religious fundamentalists. Let's hope no more people are hurt, injured or killed by these morons.

I'm writing this next to Kings Cross station in London.

Luckily I came to work this morning just before it all happened but am just about to walk back across London to Charing Cross station. I wont take the bus 'cos one of the buses blown up is on the route that I took this morning less than an hour before the incident. Hopefully the main line station will be open - wish me luck!

My dada had a lucky escape. He got off his train at Kings Cross just minutes before it was bombed. He heard the explosion just as he was walking out of the station. 33 comfirmed dead so far but that's expected to soar.

They couldn't have timed it better. G8 is on, and the Olympic bid has just been successful. Even though it must have been months in the planning, the Olympics would have just been a bonus to them. My thoughts and sympathies go out to all those involved.

My thoughts, sympathies and prayers go out to the marvelous people of London and the United Kingdom in light of this atrocity. I lived in England for ten years, including five years in the London area. Even though there were threats and bombings in London while I lived there, I was never afraid of what terrorists might do.

These extremists will not prevail.
