I heard back from my parents earlier, who tell me that they had heard from my
brother Steve this morning. The cell network was congested for most of
the day, preventing close contact, but I'm told that Steve is fine,
just a little freaked out. Apparently Steve was late this morning and
he missed the train with bomb by 10 minutes, which exploded between
King's Cross and Russell Square.
As of a couple of hours ago Steve was trapped in London with no way of
getting home. The BBC has recently
reported that buses are now running
delayed service, mainline trains are running (except into King's
Cross), but the underground remains closed. Hopefully Steve has made it
home, or is at least on his way. I plan to call him later.
Many thanks to all those that sent me their best wishes for Steve and my family.
