Hope to god any of our lot that work in the city are of wasnt sure where Tiny was so rung him got through to him in the end but he is in Norfolk today thank god.

Have spoken to Robbroy and he is fine he has been working at TAVISTOKE PLACE but today luckily he is somewhere else.

Thoughts go out to anyone (not just the members of the ESCand SIDC) but anyone caught up in this horriffic tragedy.

This really is a shocker, just got off the phone to my girlfriend who has been trying to get hold of her best friend all morning.

Turns out she has just been released from A&E suffering from smoke inhalation. She was on one of the Kingscross trains that was bombed and had to smash a window to get out....

Very very reliever to hear you are all ok. My sister is up there and has been told they are not allowed to leave the building unless they are escorted! Unfortunately one of her closest friends was not so lucky and is also being treated for the amount of smoke inhaled.
