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.

The entire tube network is shut?

DH has given up trying to get to work - he was at home this morning. He got the bus to try to get to Shepherd's Bush Central Line but the whole area has been closed to traffic, so he's gone back home again. Our nanny has just called to say that her and DS are on their way back from South Kensington, where they had been to the museums.
