My DH couldn't contact me on his mobile as the networks must be massively overloaded. Just in case anyone else is trying to contact someone.

Thanks RTKM - he said he was at Liverpool St about 10 mins earlier.

Why London though?? Surely Edinburgh at this time would have been more likely by Terrorists? Very Scary and I'm glad DH's are okay xx
