London explosions

[juliet]

Have checked in in several threads - am fine, at work. Cycled in from Streatham this morning so avoided any hint of trouble. Will probably detour via Battersea/Kennington/E&C tonight to get home, avoid Westminster. Pete also OK, as is Kitty.

I just happened to be working from home this morning... lucky for me. I was going to go in but not now.

I'm in South Ken. Well outside any problems. Don't envisage there being difficulty unless the situation escalates significantly.

We were trapped in a cordon but bits of it are being lifted so I think the situation is, err, whatever the opposite of escalating is. Descalating?

I have just heard an UNCONFIRMED report that a package has been found at SOuth Ken. Probably wild rumour, but pleeease be extra careful?

You're in the same building as my mum aren't you?

and if it makes it to IC, they'll have to evac a huuuge area of london, so that won't be quiet. Hurray for uni's with nuclear reactors and various biological and chemical nasties...

There'll be loads of suspect-package alerts for the next few days, as everyone gets uber-paranoid. But fear not I shall be careful! :-)

Blackett Lab? Just had an email saying swipe-card access only to the building for the foreseeable... And another one saying that the Faculty have agreed we can go home early - gee thanks!

My mum's in the Huxley building in the Maths department. I haven't had a reply to the e-mail I sent her, but I can't imagine she could have been anywhere near the reported blasts, fingers crossed.

Very glad you are all OK. *hugs*

No reactors in London though!

So glad you're all OK.
