Radio 4 have an extended news summary, then they're joining with 5 Live which is probably the best news source around. Still very laid back, terribly British approach to reports of course.

Hey guys
All is fucking bedlam - Victoria station looked liked Live8. All buses and tubes suspended (obviously), all phone networks down. Paramedics running about everywhere. Feels like armageddon. The films crews were starting to pour in when i cute round the back of Euston. Very, very frightening indeed.
This is the only link to the outside world I have at the moment - for some reason my email is down, and all the phone networks are down. PLease stay in touch guys

Hello. I'm here, at home, London. In some ways I wish I was in an office with people - it's kinda lonely just watching it all unfold on the telly. I was supposed to be handing my contracts to my solicitor today to sell my flat, but don't suppose I should even walk anywhere. I want my mum.
Those French really are taking this a bit far.

Agree about ITV, BBC are making a hash of decent field reporters by trying too hard to get something out of them while the field guys are trying to remain calm

Any idea what kind of incident?
Latest is just the usual "suspect package". Don't think anything has actually happened. Same goes for Brighton station apparently.

Brighton station is being closed for security reasons. I'm not entirely happy being in the biggest terrorist target in Brighton right now...

I wish I could get hold of Mikee again, mobile and work phone both not responding, all that bus shizzle happened after I spoke to him. I can't believe we can't leave the building either, well I can, but I'd rather be at home I think

Just walked back from the city through the choas. Friend has just emailed to say he's going to give blood somewhere near aldgate because it's in short supply!
Mentalism.
Isn't this the moment Gordon the Gopher crops up and says something hilareous?

Not attempting to scare, but to pass on information as I get it, plus source. Happy to stop doing that, though, if it's worrying people.

I suspect authorities are gonna be in better-safe-than-sorry mode. Swindon too, it seems.

I just got a text through - A FUCKING SPAM TEXT! Can you believe it?! Luckily though it means I was able to send a text to Mikee that wouldn't text before - that's T-Mobile.
