Wednesday 7th July

I cant believe that it's 5 years since the 7/7 bombings. In those days I worked in London almost 7 days every week and that day I was not far from the bus in Tavistock Square when the bomb went off. I remember hearing a sickening, deafening bang, then I remember the screams and then the police that appeared from nowhere to divert everyone away from the blast area. I remember the traffic chaos as I was driving home and I remember being unable to phone my girlfriend to tell her that I was safe as the mobile phone system was either overloaded or shut down. My thoughts and sympathies are with anyone who has ever suffered because of that dreadful day.
