Terrorist attacks

[Sal x]

Hi Everyone,

I am really panicing about what is happened in London this morning.

Terrorist attacks are one of my biggest fears and I am absolutley convinced that there will be more bombs going off elsewhere.

My husband works in Leeds centre and I am terrified that a bomb will go of in Leeds any minute now.

Does anyone know if this is likley??

Sorry for worring so much.

They seem to be aimed at London so I shouldnt worry your husband will be fine.

It's just in London so you don't need to worry. Why would they do Leeds?

We have just heard that the airports in the UK are shutting down. Britannia Airways are on Level 2 security alert.

But if they airports have been closed, surely that means that everywhere in the country are at risk??

Sorry I didn't mean to alarm you atall.

I just meant that the country is responding in a sensible way and taking all precautions they can with added security etc.

The whole country is not at risk - well no more than normal.

It will be fine - try to remain calm.

Hi, im too worried about terrorist attacks in general, but i think its just gunna be London, and i dont think there will be any more anywhere else in the country, i believe there wont be anymore bombs going off in London now, its just the aftermass that were seeing on the news. ive not heard of any airports closing either.
All my thoughts are with the injured and families of thows court up in this.

Take Care Dee.

[nomorepanic]

Sorry all!!

I was misinformed about the airports. You would think they would give staff accurate info when they work for an airline wouldn't you?[:I]

Anyway - the airports are not closed just on heightened security levels.

Sal,

You weren't being hysterical, it is very worrying when this kind of thing happens here.

My thoughts are with those who have lost loved ones and also the injured.

I work for the denfence industry and we had an email reporting that there is not thought to be any threat to anywhere else in the country or anymore incidences in London.

It is shocking but now it has happened I doubt it will happen again.

hi im petrififed that they are going to traget my town as we have power station which could do loads of damage

we are all lucky and have to pray and hope for those who are less fortunate than us

[clickaway]

Its ****** awful, but we have to learn to take a measured response and not panic.

In situations like this, I try to cheer myself up with a CD or a radio station without news overload.

The newspapers will now try and give scare stories as usual, so beware of that before they send you into a deep spin.

Take Care,

Ray

Hi Sal x and all..

I am devastated after hearing these horrible news.. A few people have lost their lives and I feel sorry for them and their families.
I live 1 hour away , and Sal x , I understand about your worries.. I was at work when I heard about all this, and a little while after I had a panic attack , I couldn't concentrate on my work and ended up in tears.. My anxiety has been high all week and surely, hearing this , has made it worse.
Sorry about the rant.
Take care all.
Florence.

Nothing very wise to add here, other than I agree with what's already been said.

It doesn't seem awfully productive to get drawn into anything other than the basic facts - they are grim enough.

My heart goes out to those affected.

walking around near where i live, seeing the tube stations closed and not knowing what was going on was weird.. it reminded me of the opening scenes of that film 'war of the worlds'.
i hope and pray that things will calm down and that it is the last attack of its kind.
hope everyone is safe tonight x

I watched the new today with fear and a sense of terror at what these people are capable of, but I also know that we have one of the tightest security services in the world, and they will not get away with what they have done.

Inner cities are there target because the heart of our economy is in London.

But i agree with Lucy We must remain calm and we must not let these people think they can win we will not be defeated

Take Care
