kangaroosa Posted July 7, 2005 Report Posted July 7, 2005 Is anybody watching TV? This is some serious stuff. 6-7 Bombs, 2 Confirmed Dead, 90 Casualties and many more expected. Quote
TOMsGPTurbo Posted July 7, 2005 Report Posted July 7, 2005 Yep, very sad I saw 911 live at like 12 midnight.. too :n: Must say their emergency service / intel / milatry has handled the situation in a impressive matter. Quote
Medicine_Man Posted July 7, 2005 Report Posted July 7, 2005 Yeah its pretty f@$ked up, just got confirmation that my mate over there is ok, what they prove by doing this shit has got me... Quote
Ruts Posted July 7, 2005 Report Posted July 7, 2005 What scares me is Erin is flying over that way tomorrow - very worrying Quote
Joch666 Posted July 7, 2005 Report Posted July 7, 2005 Yeah its pretty f@$ked up, just got confirmation that my mate over there is ok, what they prove by doing this shit has got me... prove that they can do it. they don't care that it simply strengthens the resolve of the government and the people in their anger. it's pathetic and cowardly run and hide tactics. I'm still waiting to hear from my mates over there, though I'm sure (hoping) they're ok. I'm so tired of watching people die like this. Quote
Xany Posted July 7, 2005 Report Posted July 7, 2005 didnt know anything about it until about 11ish tonight....one of my workmates came over to me and said.."hey man you heard whats happening over in london".....i went..."yeah yeah i heard they got the olympics".....he goes "nah man if you got friends over there give them a call right now".....he says "they've had another 911 over there....subways and buses being the target"..... i was just shocked.....although i don't have anyone over there that i know of....i hope all of your loved ones are safe and sound.

Joch666 Posted July 7, 2005 Report Posted July 7, 2005 I heard from my friend in London. He and his fam are all ok, but he was on the tube at Edgware station when it got evacuated. Way too close a call... He talked to me on msn from his Dad's office in central London (since he couldn't get to his own work) and was telling me how they were told it was a power failure... so he went to catch a bus when his mum rang him (very intelligent and wonderful woman, by the way) and said whatever you do, don't get on a bus. So he got a cab. But that was part of the problem - the citizens knew nothing and weren't being told anything and couldn't, in the early stages, make fully informed decisions about what they could do. I knew more about it than he did watching ABC news over here so I was telling him what was going on. It was very strange... To echo Xany - hope anyone with friends/fam hears they are all safe. Quote
MissSydneyCruising Posted July 7, 2005 Report Posted July 7, 2005 yeah its prety pathetic... I'm just glad my tims ok, he sent me sms back midnight last night. :n: Quote
Super Jamie Posted July 8, 2005 Report Posted July 8, 2005 hold on, you mean something really serious did happen? f@$k, i gotta call someone Quote
Mr Revhead[RL] Posted July 8, 2005 Report Posted July 8, 2005 yeah... was a worrying we time for me. my cousin ans sister are both there at the moment. cuz lives very close to that area, and at least 2 of the stations are on the line she takes..... found out they were ok at 1am our time. bastard terrorists :n: Quote
Super Jamie Posted July 8, 2005 Report Posted July 8, 2005 yay alison's ok :n: and i got her email address from her sister whee! Quote
Mr Revhead[RL] Posted July 8, 2005 Report Posted July 8, 2005 i find it interesting, america after 911 was all outrage and bluster. the brits are carrying on as normal. i bet they are warming up the SAS though... look out lil rag heads, the SAS are gunna get you :n: Quote
Northen Rolla Posted July 8, 2005 Report Posted July 8, 2005 My g/f and i found out about half an hour before it came on the news, my g/f's sister works in london as a pathologist (right next to the Big Ben), she got off the Tube 20 minutes before it all happened. She rang us to tell us that when we hear about it not to panic and she was ok. We have all told her not to stay there and just come back to aus... i think she's considering it too. HEY TERRORISTS :n: FARK YOU ALL Quote
TOMsGPTurbo Posted July 8, 2005 Report Posted July 8, 2005 (edited) yeh my couz works in the area that was targated, he also catchs public transport, even tho we arn't on talking terms I was a bit worried and made some calls to find out he was ok ... which is good. Personally I think Londan is very lucky not to have worse results... sure one deceased is one to many 52 is terrible.. but it could of been much worse.. I was very curious this morning when mobile communication towers were activited if more bombs would of exploded... hopefully the video footage from the trains and street cams will shed some light which cell is responsible.
