Your odds are better in London...eat well....

Oh, count on it! That's usually what I most look forward to when I go on R&R. And contrary to popular belief, London has some great food.

I hope this thing isn't some terrorist crap and I hope everyone is OK.

Lights are on. Lots of sirens.

The train stopped and people were using umberellas to smash windows of the trains.

Umbrellas... was it storming out? A lightning strike?

"He added people were milling around Kings Cross covered in soot."

Soot in an electric tunnel? Are there the train cars on fire?

CNN international just broke away and went back to domestic U.S. channel. CNN (US) says "details are sketchy". Investigating reports of other explosions.

Prayers for Londoners.

Debka.com says that a London bus was bombed as well. Debka better be lying. It is an Israeli disinformation site. But it can be dead accurate about tomorrow's news sometimes.
