Instead of this degenerating into the usual Scoobynet slagfest, can those of you who insist in indulging yourselves do it elsewhere and try and keep it factual as some of us have friends and family in town which is worrying.

Hopefully, this isn't serious but it could be nasty.

The entire London Underground system has been shut down.

Very sad day
That's quite a wide area.

Luckily I came in early today for meeting, but a few peeps here have only just come in.
Looking out the window we have a few helicopters flying around.

And the word on the city streets is: Power Surge.

Wow, things move quick on this thread.

Agreed - can we try and keep this vaguely factual for the moment.

Just listening to a women on Sky News describing how a bus was blown apart is pretty sobering

A hero? i'm just saying that from being right on the doorstep on one of the central points being attacked its hardly as serious as evacuate everyone from the surrounding areas. If it gets to that and companies starting sending staff home or bomb sirens go off then i'd say you have cause to be concerned.
like ChrisL said, let's keep it factual at the moment. This is hardly the time to start slagging each other off is it.
