They shall not grow old as we that are left grow old.
Age shall not weary them nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun, and in the morning,

We will remember them.

my company had the top two floors of tower 1. Virtually everyone was taken. Every single penny of profit that we make on September 11th now goes to charity ... £2million was raised last year and we are trying to do more this year.

I don't know who you work for but that is a very generous thing for your company to do, I'm sure everyone who lost someone that day would be very greatful to hear such a thing

we also have a whole selection of celebrities in today to help out.

Amoungst them

Princess Royal
Shane Warne
Simon Cowell
Lord Coe
Zara Phillips
Damon Hill
David Seaman
Nigel Benn
Gail Porter

plus loads others.

It's a massive thing for our company and we all try our hardest to make as much money as possible. For the first years after the 9/11 all the money went to the families of those lost, however now we split amoungst other causes. Very very good atmosphere here and rightly so!

still cant believe what we was watching, as we have a live feed to our new york office. We thought at first it was a trailer to a film!!!!!!

know of a few people that got caught up in it!!!!! thoughts still go out to all the families that have been affected by it. And it's all in the name of religion....yet right....f**ckers!!!!!!

Police presence in London today is high, best i dont drive along the road popping and banging!!

for those that are interested we raised $5,000,000 which was all given away to a number of worthy causes. This represents $1,000,000 more than we raised last year.
