Richey you weren't there and you are ok.

A drink won't change the fact that you've had one seriously lucky break today.

That's something to be thankful for.

You're doing great, wee smasher.

Glad you're safe, hon. Someone's looking out for you, I reckon.

Got any AA or NA pals you can be with?

I just wonder how many people I know who i don't know well enough to have their mobile numbers might be injured or even dead.
What if there are more bombs?
I feel sick. I'm going throw up.

It's awful Richey, it really is but thank goodness you're safe. Try not to watch too much news if you can and just be safe. You're ok and this will be a tough time for you to get through, but you can do it.

Keep posting!

Love, Anna

Hon, they disable the networks for emergency use only. Also, many people will be trying to call relatives, so the networks go down - ever tried calling at midnight on New Years?

Richey, I can't imagine what you're going through. I'm sure you are terribly frightened. Please know you are in our thoughts and prayers.

On 9/11, I remember this feeling of doom, thinking that something else was about to happen. But somehow it ended.

Yes, please try to not get glued to the tube...
This world seems to be getting so freakin' crazy.
I believe that an eye for an eye leaves the world very blind.

I'm watching the conference, and I think the worst is over, your okay. The city is in a state of emergency so your lines will be down until they get all the information they need and emergency services asked people stay of the phones for now. Hang in there, I'm grateful your okay.
