w.atching the w.orld unw.ind

Today's lyric:
And the public gets what the public wants
But I want nothing this society's got -
I'm going underground, (going underground)
Well the brass bands play and feet start to pound
Going underground, (going underground)
Well let the boys all sing and the boys all shout for tomorrow.

The Jam: "Going underground"

From the album: "Snap"

We're two minutes walk from Liverpool Street and are 'locked in' the building for security.

We have internet for news updates on the bombs and traffic situation, but it looks as if getting out of London tonight is going to be tough.

Not as tough as for those who've died, and their families, though..

update

Finally home after 3.5 hours, a change of train leaving London Bridge which caused hundeds of commuters to have to run back into a main line London station, then a bomb scare en route to East Croydon which left us daisy-chained to other trains outside the station.

Mobile networks understandably being closed down for the emergency causing loved ones to panic when they couldn't raise me.

Just very grateful to be intact. I hope there's seven levels of sh1t waiting for the perpetrators...
