Yeah, I think most people are fine.  It seems to be much less serious than a fortnight ago and most people in the office here see it as in inconvenience rather than being worried by it.  We've all been more concerned about the cricket score - you've get to get your priorities right!

I just wish they didn't keep blowing up my usual buses!

I haven't heard too much.  The djs were very vague when they reported on my way into work.  So called my boyfriend and he went to CNN website, which was reporting an unconfirmed report that a in a subway a passenger's knapsack had a bomb and it went off, but was a very small explosion.  Lots of smoke, and only opened the knapsack - supposedly no injuries or deaths.  

Supposedly there was an incident on a bus - but I haven't heard anything about that.

Hope all is well with everyone.

Seems more to do with shock tactics but no real 'explosions'.  Have only heard of one person being injured and that was trying to get away with the rush, rather than due to an explosion.

Scare tactics, definitely!

Seems the detonators went off and not the bombs - this obv could have been as bad or worse than 2 weeks ago but something def went wrong.

Everyone seems safe and well.  Thank you for asking.  

I'm just grateful that yesterday was no worse.  

Best wishes,
