Being from Atlanta, I was thrilled for London as their name was read as the 2012 host city. And then today, I wake up to the terrible news.

My thoughts go out to them. Hope they quickly get those bastards who did this.

It's scary for sure. More and more news coming in, explosions and the like. Wish there was a TV so I could get more of the reports.

Where I work, it's a Ministry Of Defence place, so the security rating has gone up and they've closed the gates.

I am very sad, London is my home (albeit an absent one), I was born and grew up there and moved away very recently, it is very sad. A couple of my friends had a close call but it all sucks.

I wonder why it didn't happen before the Olympic vote.

I used to work right by Russell Square so got lots of friends/work colleagues in the heart of it. They're all OK, but obviously a bit scary being there when you can hear the sirens, explosions etc.

BTW, someone's commented on the UB that the police block mobile signals as they can be used as triggers, so don't panic if you can't get through on someone's mobile.

I suspect it's more to do with the G8 summit than the Olympics. Could be wrong, though.

The prime minister has just spoken, clearly shookup as are the rest of us, he will be returning to london in the next couple of hours and then his plans are to return to the G8 summit later this evening.

Hopes & wishes to all who have been stuck in this tragic events, and it is not just down to London, Swindon trains have been stopped & MOD sites are not letting visitors entrance to the sites.
