More evacuations

[kid]

Totenham Court Road has just been evacuated. I know there are going to be lots of scares following the London bombings but DH has asked me to check if anything has happened. He seems to think something has.

No reported casualties. Thank God for that!

from sky news it seems that someone's rucksack 'exploded' but no one (including the man holding the rucksack) was injured.
Quote was 'the man holding the rucksack looked dismayed'.

Just had an work email saying about this. Just as I was feeling OK about being in London again.

Maybe he couldn't work out why his rucksack had exploded.

Sources are saying that they may have Gun shots on platform at warren street!!!

explosion on a bus on hackney road!!! OMG thats down the road from my parents and in-laws!!!

'the man holding the rucksack looked dismayed'.
This made me laugh

It looks lie if anything did happen then its been nipped in the bud rather than a reaction after an event.

Hopefully

Easy - Maybe he wondered what he'd put into his sandwiches this morning.

Sorry, making a joke of things as I was close to 2 of the 'incidents' on 7/7 and today i went to work then got sent home (sick) so went through S.Bush a couple of hours ago.

There are non-stop sirens again here (west London)..either something has really happened or people are even more twitchy.

Made me laugh too, Mrs D.

Do you think it might have been a batch of home-brew he was taking to a mate's house?

It is on BBC1 now

I cant believe these BASTARDS. They dont care who they hurt. Hopefully the emergency services can do a good job like they did last time!!!

We have to keep a sense of humour tho'. Otherwise 'they' are starting to win at grinding us down.

Yeah of course, home-brew hence the dismay.
Maybe it hadn't stopped fermenting when he bottled it - it's a bit warm out there!!

What have they said on the news, can't turn over, ds is watching something.

They think that there may still be a device on the bus coz the police have sealed of the area around the bus! Maybe they will be able to get some big clues if there is still a device that didn't blow!!!

DO they know what it is yet???

It's not really trademark Al Queda to bomb at lunch time though.... isn't rush hour more their style.

I live down the Hackney Road, I take those buses, my kids take thsoe buses. so angry.

You can look at sky news website they might have this on there website!

3 tube stations have been evacuated - apparently 3 dummy bombs have been found! warren street closed, shepherds bush closed,and I think the oval incident on a bus in Hackney Road
No one as yet reported injured thank god
News is being a bit vague at the moment

Hi ghostofnatt, are you at work?
They wont let anyone through hackney road, its taped of!

Has been smoke at Oval tube, big major evacuation going on.....mobiles round here not working...

Just said that they have a sniffer dog sniffing at people on the streets!!! Could they be looking for someone????

all tube services now suspended according to ITV news

No 26 bus on hackney road - bus looks ok - but they are not sure what has happened
