I’m sure it’s not Russia. In other news, Poland confirmed today that Russia burnt down (arson) their major shopping centre last year.

SKY news someone said their went to five different stations before they found out what was going on so spent two hours stranded im central London". what, so you didn't find out at the first, or check the news on your phone, or ask someone, or just get on a bus or three?

happened to me,, 2003? I was at London Bridge station in the evening rush hour all the power went out "everybody must leave the station immediately " no explanation. I walked a bit, found a bar with the lights on near the elephant and castle (maybe it was that?) had a beer or two then got two busses home.

strange that the same sort of thing happened im NY several months earlier.....


good experiment to see what happens I suppose.
