A thread just for a 'register'. Check in here to say you're ok - or flag up manes of others to check on.
Discussion etc on other thread.

Im ok, as is DP who works in Aldgate.

I'm OK - just wondering how I'm going to get home tonight!! My client is just down the road from Aldgate station so we've got the TV helicopters hovering overhead. Fortunately, I got in at 08:00 this morning so missed it all. The guys back in our office at Liverpool Street have just been evacuated...and the mobile networks are completely dead.

Great idea for the thread though.

Countess Dracula....you around too???

Kbear works near liverpool st station. Is she here?

PC - I doubt very much whether anything will be going on this evening now. I would think the priority when things die down will just be to get people out of London and home.

jan, Blu has. Batters is off work today.

HOW ARE WE ALL GOING TO GET HOME TO OUR CHILDREN?

So glad we are all OK so far.

PC
I must admit I am sitting here snuffling. My children seem so far away and dh is marooned too.

Have instructed dh to pick up dd tonight.....

Marina I'm wondering about that too!

Thinking possible just black cab all the way???

I'll let you know if thats what DH and I decide - we can take you back with us!

Oh soapbox, we could do that! Keep me posted. THANK YOU.

SOUTH LONDONERS: I am in S London, and am very very happy to do any picking of kids up that might be necessary. Have my car here at work with me.

BossyKates DH is waiting to hear from her, but is confident she wouldn't have been close to any of the explosions.

i have phoned local radio here in essex they were asking if anyone was in contact with anyone in london so that they can get messages to there familys so bbc will be looking on here

can anyone check up on kbear??

A colleague who just came in says there are no cabs, people are walking, not usre it's possible to get home at moment...

BK is ok

i'm fine

are we under attack by the french?

We've been told so far to stay put too!

Blu - re your suggestion about picking kids up for people - perhaps start a new thread??

Could make it easier to post your very kind offer for those that would like to take it up.

My partner said that too, BK. So glad all you guys here are ok. It is horrible watching all this unfold.
