We're fine!
We're fine. James is safe at his desk (his building is probably among the most bomb proof in London), I'm safe at home. James did take the bus to work today (EARLY) but I'm trying not to think about that too hard.
I'm getting that one of the 'incidents' has been near Old Street, from which I live three blocks away.
I'm freaking out. In a big way.

Edit 11:04: There are all sorts of sirens right now. Eugh.
Edit 11:13: The incident at Old Street was reportedly one of the power surges. I was vaguely worried one of the buses we frequent had blown up. That would've been unnerving.
Edit 11:28: According to this article, there was at least one explosive device on the Underground. :P
Edit 13:37: To put things into perspective, for those of you who don't know, we live about a mile away from both Liverpool Street and Moorgate stations, both of which had exploding tube trains this morning. James works metres from Liverpool Street. So all of this is really close to home. Literally.

Glad to hear you're both okay!
I'm glad you're okay.
I'm glad you're both safe!
Jesus. I don't even know you, but I'm just wandering around the internet looking for updates. I wish you the best.
My prayers are with you today.
Glad you are both OK. I was working in Croydon and even that far south of the problems there was mayhem everywhere.
I am so glad I heard you were safe before I went to bed last night, I would have been freaking out when I got up and saw the news. *hug*
This is how I found out about the attacks, you were saying you were safe in the RSS.
I'm glad you two are okay. Stay safe.
