• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

7/7

I had just left home and was driving along the road listening to the car radio when heard the news that a bus had been blown up in Tavistock Square during the rush hour. Now my wife works in central London and takes the bus from Euston station to The Aldwych and it goes through Tavistock Square.

A quick look in the mirror, nothing behind me, hit the brakes, two long, long parallel black stripes on the tarmac and a hand brake turn, fast drive back home to phone my wife's office. Thank God she had just got in. Her bus had gone through Tavistock Square about a minute before the bomb.
 
An important anniversary mate! :medals: Our British cousins stood by us on 9/11, and we shall never forget what happened in London! May all those who perished in this senseless attack rest in peace... :engel016:
