    Well what an emotional day.
    Firstly was reminded on fb that my sister narrowly missed being in Brussels this time last year when they had attacks there. She had left Brussels that morning.

    Secondly my mum had a CT head scan a week ago as GP suspected her cancer had spread. Took mum to get result today and luckily there is no spread of cancer :j:j

    Thirdly had just came out of seeing mums oncologist and was about to let family know the good news and it was just breaking about Westminster. Sister I mentioned above works in Westminster was in a lock down. Later found out another sister that works near tower london , her office was in lock down too :eek: . Both back home safe now phew.


    So pleased your mum is ok, relief for you that your sisters are back home and safe.

    The Met Commissioner witnessed one of the incidents.....surely not a coincidence
    Doesn't feel coincidental to me.

    My son just called to say he was working from home today ( he works for msn news) and usually finishes at 5 but didn't not finish till 9.30 and was on his way out for a pint. When his wife got back from work she realised she had crossed Westminster bridge in a cab 5 minutes before the attack. Very sad day for all concerned

    Today I learnt that I could block calls on my home phone using BTs free call protect service. I did not know that this had been launched in January. You log into your account.... then you can add individual numbers, or block certain categories...i.e. international, unavailable etc. Thought I would share that with you all, as I did not even know the service was available. Ignore me if you were all aware, and I have just been asleep :)
