I was just getting into a happy mood about London (the Games! Yipeee!) and now this, perhaps inevitable, disaster.
Tom Coates has good roundup of news. More BBC news.
The Olympic bid team slinks back to the capital whilst we keep the telly on. I have friends who work in BMA house, right on Tavistock Square.
I'm struck by the swift professionalism of the emergency services, the ability of Tony Blair to act as a president (compared to the laughable Bush), and the quiet desperation of the English commuters and their international friends.
