...Miaou, don't read this, OK?

It's a blog and this bit's full of random quotes about 7/7, particularly how good London is at getting on with it - "tea"!

Loved these bits:

"Speaking on behalf of the people of Essex, we are standing by you the peoples of Londonia in these trying times. Mainly because Suffolk won't swap places with us."

Yes I know, CD, but what else shall we call it? You come up with something snappy and I'll use that.

C'mon we don't have this for all our other previous terrorist attacks do we? How about "the recent london bombings" That would suffice

We don't HAVE to follow the US in everything, do we?

Things people have posted on websites about last Thursday's London bombs, nutty. (Only next week it'll be "the Thursday-before-last's bombs" and then it'll be "that day when London got bombed the day after we heard about the 2012 Olympics".....)

CD,
All Americans know that Dunkin Donuts are the good stuff -- or Shipleys if you happen to be a Texan.

BTW, I've never had a Krispy Kreme.

Just read it all, Janh.
