UPDATE 13:26 GMT
So nun mal mein kleiner "Nach der Mittagspause Report".
Ich persoenlich komme mir vor wie in einem Film, ob Ihr es glaubt oder nicht, ich war heute morgen in Aldgate East und hab das ganze gluecklicherweise um ca. 8-10min verpasst. Vieleicht koennt Ihr Euch das schwer vorstellen, ich war ja selber auch noch nie in so einer Situation, aber ich hatte vorhin wirklich mal so viel Angst/Schock, das ich gezittert habe, am ganzen Koerper.
Nun war ich draussen, hatte grossen Hunger und ausserdem hab ich wirklich einen Schnapps gebraucht und die Szene ist gespenstisch. Vor unserem Buero verlaeuft eine 4-spurige Strasse, genau die zwischen Russel Square, Euston, Kings Cross, Liverpool St . und Aldgate/Aldgate East. Soll heissen, viel zentraler kann ich nicht sein. Es fahren hier kaum mehr Autos (der Police Commisioner hat Leuten empfohlen sich nicht ins Zentrum zu begeben, und auf der Busspur wo normalerweise dutzende Busse wie an einem Schnuerchen aufgereit stehen, faehrt nichts mehr. Wo man hin sieht, nur Leute zu Fuss. Ausserdem glaub ich, das ich nicht der einzigeste bin, den das so mitgenommen hat, die Menschen scheinen alle in einer Art Trance zu sein.
Mein Mittag konnte ich nicht so richtig essen, der Appetit ging dann wieder.
Mittlerweile fehlen mir nur noch 2 Kumpels, von denen ich noch nicht gehoert habe, allen andern geht es Gott sei dank gut.
Vielen Dank fuer all die Wuensche, heute hatte ich moeglicherweise einen Schutzengel, weiss garnicht ob ich das verdiente.

Das Netz wurde nun komplett geschlossen, d.h. ca. 1Mio Leute wandern noch durch Tunnel und ein vielfaches mehr verstopfen Busse, bzw. laufen. Hab eine kleine Voelkerwanderung hier am Buero vorbeiziehen...
Man weiss noch nicht genau was es war, geht von einer "Power-Surge" aus, also sowas wie eine Art Ueberladung/Entladung... Muss aber was krasses sein, denn man spricht bereits von Verletzten etc.
Ich halt Euch auf dem Laufenden.
So nun mal mein kleiner "Nach der Mittagspause Report".
