London rocks
... not just in the explosion way, but in the way that everyone kept their composure, and the way the people in charge got public transport up and running again.
Personally, I rather suspect nothing can ruffle Londoners' feathers -- that no matter what happens, Londoners will adapt, and carry on with their life
I must say that there are times when I feel let down by London -- the inconsistent and generally dismal tube services with their constant signal failures and closure (Circle/District is Abysmal) but rising fares, the short store opening hours, the high cost of living...
But then something like this happens. And the way the City responds awes, stuns, amazes me. Humbles me.
And I reminded why I love this city. Why this is the right place for me to be, my city of dreams.

Londoners are as cool as cucumber even when confronted with such a crisis. Most importantly, the police and security forces moved to the rescue promptly n systematically. Really admirable.
