I totally agree with you there, I'd never seen anything of the like before.

I can remember watching the news when I got in from work with the constant replays of the crashing planes, and I can remember having this feeling of vulnerability. Not that it was going to happen to me, but thinking that if these nutters could do such a thing then what next? Was anyone safe anymore?

I was working for the CSA in Gateshead, although I was too embarrassed to tell me mam & dad, so I used to tell them i was a drug dealer instead. Anyway, we were on the 8th floor and one of the lasses' husbands rang in and told her and she told everyone else. Loads of the lasses were panicking in case we were next. Dozy buggers.

I'm a bit late to this thread, but anyway.... I was living in Plymouth at the time, in a big house with 6 others. I'd been out on the Saturday night with the mrs and had spent the night at her place, so at about 9am on the Sunday morning I'd just got back in and was wedging open the kitchen door when the landlord came in and said, "Shame about Diana isn't it?" Then he told me. Like others have said, I've no particular connection to the royals but i was shocked none the less. In true Brit style I put the kettle on, sparked up, kept calm and carried on
