Thank God for that Buzz - any idea's where yet? Ex Central Londoner (Victoria) here myself so I always like to know, especially given that I'm hoping to go and support the OUCH UK team in the 10K run on Sunday.

Update: Apparently people have seen 'cylinders' being removed from a Mercedees Benz at the centre of the investigation... Are clusterheads involved? Just a thought

Looks like they found another one, they said it was positioned so that those fleeing the first would run into the second. I wish you guys well over there. Be aware.

It's the 10K run in London on Sunday and there are 18 people running for OUCH UK. I'm damn sure they will all go ahead with it so spare them a thought and a prayer please.

It is up to YOU to educate yourself and then help your doctor plan your treatment. If you just sit down in front of your doctor and say "make me better" you are setting yourself up for a great deal of pain.

I must admit that it is kind of scary to find out now that there were 2 bombs quite close to the areas where we were walking earlier this week... If this would have happened then, I bet that my over-protective mum would have gone complitely nuts! London is a special city to me. When something like this takes place, I just don't read about it and move on; I used to live it this city and I know my way around in parts of it. I used to think of myself as international londoner, and I still feel that way about it. Lots of vibes & prayers are on their way to all OUCH UK people! I hope that everything goes well on Sunday. Hugs, Sanna

From the article (BBC): Quote:They have also described seeing two Aisan men, one of whom was on fire, who had been in the car. |

| I agree 100% with you Jonny. The word, "Freaks" being what separates them from the vast majority of peace-loving Muslims... I come from a society where the tragedy of generalisations about particular groups of people has had a devastating effect; I try to understand that it is always the noisy minority (fundamentalists) that becomes representative of the majority - they are simply more newsworthy. (Imagine a headline in a newspaper, "Peace loving Islamist stays at home and does nothing" - hardly news is it, yet millions (billions?) of them do just that every single day compared to the 3/4 who blow something up). I say that we all have to be vigilant. That is common sense. But to tar all with the same brush is madness - and a surefire way to alienate them, turning them into enemies.

| Then the "peace-loving Muslims" need to speak out loudly and strongly against what these "freaks" do for fun. So far, all I've heard is the sound of crickets. Otherwise, how are we to know who the "freaks" are? See where I'm coming from? It's called tacit approval.

Although the stuff in London and Glasgow is rather serious, these jerks are really quite incompetent, aren't they? A good demonstration that terrorists don't need to kill a lot of people, they just need to scare everyone. Too bad the press (and the pres.) make a living by whipping up hysteria. This is another beast we should not let ruin our lives. My thanks to all who nailed these clowns.

| I cannot disagree with you, Brew. It is time that the Muslims drew a line in the sand and disassociated themselves with terrorism. They have a duty to themselves to make it known that a) terrorism is completely unacceptable and that B) they are (as the word "Islam" suggests) a peace-loving religion. If they fail to do this, their only spokespeople are the bombers - who have our attention.

| Amen, my British brother! I believe the main reason it hasn't happened is that they are more afraid of the freaks than we are. Fear can be a powerful motivator.
