London
"To build may have to be the slow and laborious task of years. To destroy can be the thoughtless act of a single day."Sir Winston Churchill
London was today attacked in an organised fashion. I think they are the Circle, District and Picadilly lines. The note claiming responsibility is appalling, from start to end. I will not even start on the no-tag-back "He who warns is excused" line. But they claim:
Britain is now burning with fear, terror and panic in its northern, southern, eastern, and western quarters.
According to people who are there, England's response is typically stoic, greeting these events with resolve.
Still more majestic shalt thou rise,
More dreadful from each foreign stroke;
More dreadful, dreadful from each foreign stroke.
As the loud blast, the blast that tears the skies
Serves but to root the native oak.
Rule Britannia
My thoughts and sympathies are with you all.
