yeah theres loads of gawpers standing around watching (well it is next to portobello rd on market day) if they happened to have a big bomb like those dudes in Spain it could get nasty, though the cordon is fairly large.

bloody helos been bussing around and around and around the office since this morning though, driving me a little bonkers now.

In Dalgarno Gardens officers are continually shouting at someone in a flat to come out. They are addressing him as "Muhammad". The police are asking him: "What is the problem? Why can't you come out? "Take your clothes off. Exit the building. Do you understand?"

Aha, ok then I just knew a couple of PHers who work there... thought you all might know each other

Anyway, seems like that area isn't a stranger to international news, the Paddington rail crash occured only a couple hundred metres away.

also one of the bombers got on at westbourne park tube station just around the corner, I've seen a lot of obvious and less obvious police presence around the area lately.

Now they've caught the 3rd Bomber in Hackney now

[ATG]

CNN/ITV seem to think the chap has been arrested. That's three of the four in custody I think?

bloke on ITV just said "two of the bombers" in custody ... dunno

Crikey mate - you must be glued to the satelite news or work for a new media company....

Got BBC news streamed to my desktop and you managed to get that in before me!!! Still, good news though. Hope its true and fingers crossed that they are who they think they are. Now all we need are a few trials....
